Exploring of miR-155-5p, miR-181b-5p, and miR-454-3p Expressions in Circulating Cell-Free RNA: Insights from Peripheral Blood of Uveal Malignant Melanoma Patients.

The identification of novel non-invasive biomarkers is imperative for the early diagnosis and monitoring of malignant melanoma. The objective of this study is to examine the expression levels of miR-155-5p, miR-181b-5p, and miR-454-3p in circulating cell-free RNA obtained from plasma samples of the 72 uveal malignant melanoma patients and to compare these levels with those of 72 healthy controls. The analysis showed that the expression level of the miR-181b-5p has increased 9.

A Deeper Insight into , , and Variants and Genotype-Phenotype Correlation of a Turkish Cohort with Alport Syndrome.

Introduction: Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited, rare, progressive kidney disease that affects the eye and ear physiology. Pathogenic variants of account for 85% of all cases, while and account for the remaining 15%.

Methods: Targeted next-generation sequencing of the , , and genes was performed in 125 Turkish patients with AS.

Whole-Exome Sequencing (WES) results of 50 patients with chronic kidney diseases: a perspective of Alport syndrome.

Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains one of the major common health problems, and the number of people affected by the disease is progressively increasing in Turkey and worldwide. This study aimed to investigate molecular defects in Alport syndrome (AS) and other genes in patients with clinically suspected CKD using whole-exome sequencing (WES).

Methods: Patients with clinical suspicion of CKD were included in the study.
