Small RNA sequencing and identification of papaya (Carica papaya L.) miRNAs with potential cross-kingdom human gene targets.

Several studies have demonstrated potential role of plant-derived miRNAs in cross-kingdom species relationships by transferring into non-plant host cells to regulate certain host cellular functions. How nutrient-rich plants regulate host cellular functions, which in turn alleviate physiological and disease conditions in the host remains to be explored in detail. This computational study explores the potential targets, putative role, and functional implications of miRNAs derived from Carica papaya L.

Analysis in Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma Patients: A Liquid Biopsy Approach.

In the era of the targeted therapy identification of detection in lung cancer is extremely helpful to predict the treatment efficacy of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Unfortunately, the inadequacy and quality of the biopsy samples are the major obstacles in molecular testing of in lung cancer. To address this issue, the present study intended to use liquid biopsy as the non-invasive method for detection.
