Research Abstract |
In this study, we attempted to explore specific microRNAs (miRNAs) in serum and saliva derived from patients with oral cancer. Specifically 17 increased miRNAs and 15 undetectable miRNAs in serum from oral cancer patients were commonly identified. Among these miRNAs, hsa-miR-181b was markedly elevated in not only serum but also saliva from oral cancer patients. These miRNAs may be useful for detection of oral cancer.
