Patent abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are a recently discovered class of small non-coding RNAs (17-14 nucleotides). Due to their function as regulators of gene expression they play a critical role both in physiological and in pathological processes, such as cancer. The present invention provides novel methods for diagnosing prostate cancer based on the determination of specific miRNAs that have altered expression levels in different conditions, e.g. disease states compared to healthy controls.
