High-throughput sequencing of plasma microRNA in chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis.
<h4>Background</h4>MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known to regulate many biological processes and their dysregulation has been associated with a variety of diseases including Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME). The recent discovery of stable and reproducible miRNA in pla...
