“…miRNAs dysregulation observed in tissues and serum associated with disease activity was considered as a potential biomarker for clinical diagnosis ( Link et al, 2010 ; Kalla et al, 2015 ; Rupaimoole and Slack, 2017 ; Tili et al, 2017 ; Hossian et al, 2019 ; Chen et al, 2020 ), but several issues have impeded the application of circulating miRNAs in clinical diagnosis ( Wang et al, 2018 ; Saliminejad et al, 2019 ). In the host’s gastrointestinal tract, fecal miRNA can be influenced by the alteration of gut microbial composition, which provides a new perspective to identify intestinal and microbiota healthiness ( Carter et al, 2017 ; Horne et al, 2019 ; Tarallo et al, 2019 ; Sarshar et al, 2020 ).…”
