Differentially expressed miRNA profiles of serum derived extracellular vesicles from patients with acute ischemic stroke by Ghulam, Jeelani Pir

“…An enrichment analysis was conducted to delineate the networks and biological pathways implicated by differentially expressed microRNAs. ResultsFive miRNAs were differentially expressed between stroke (AIS) versus control (HC). hsa-let-7b-5p, hsa-miR-16-5p, and hsa-miR-320c were upregulated, whereas hsa-miR-548a-3p and hsa-miR-6808-3p, with no previously reported changes in stroke were downregulated. …”
