Evaluation of miR-711 as Novel Biomarker in Prostate Cancer Progression.

Objective: MicroRNAs (miRs) are class of small non-coding regulatory RNA aberrantly expressed in various types of malignancies including prostate cancer and serves as potential targets to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. In this quiet we investigated miRNAs expression profile in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa) tissue samples and correlated their expression with clinicopathological parameters. Methodology: The miRNAs expression profile as well as their validation has been done by using Microarray and RT-PCR, respectively.
