Breast Cancer and miR-SNPs: The Importance of miR Germ-Line Genetics

Breast Cancer and miR-SNPs: The Importance of miR Germ-Line Genetics

Recent studies in cancer diagnostics have identified microRNAs (miRNAs) as promising cancer biomarkers. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA binding sites, seed regions, and coding sequences can help predict breast cancer risk, aggressiveness, response to stimuli, and prognosis. This revi...
