Abstract:Purpose: Cystic vestibular schwannoma (CVS) is an aggressive form of vestibular schwannoma (VS) with rapid growth and poor outcomes. The molecular basis of CVS remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether microRNAs (miRNAs) contribute to the development of CVS. Methods: We identified miRNAs that were differentially expressed between CVS and solid VS (SVS) tissues using high-throughput sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR analysis. Gene targets of the identified miRNA were predicted by b… Show more
