Abstract:Background
Numerous researches have demonstrated the essential functions of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cardiovascular disease. Herein, we want to probe into the roles of miR-126 and miR-223 in the prediction of plaque stability of carotid atherosclerosis (CA).
Methods
First, miRNA microarray was performed to analyze the differentially expressed miRNA in serum of normal controls and CA patients. Next, the differential expression of miR-223 and miR-126 in CA was verified and the correlations of their expression lev… Show more
