Upregulation of circulating microRNA-134 in adult-onset Still’s disease and its use as potential biomarker
Abstract Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a multi-systemic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology. To date, no single diagnostic test is available for AOSD. Herein, we investigated the pathogenic role of microRNAs in AOSD. MicroRNA profiles in plasma from AOSD patients and healthy controls w...
