Are circulating microRNAs suitable for the early detection of malignant mesothelioma? Results from a nested case–control study

Abstract Objective Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer of the serous membranes. For the detection of the tumor at early stages non- or minimally-invasive biomarkers are needed. The circulating biomarkers miR-132-3p, miR-126-3p, and miR-103a-3p were analyzed in a nested case–control study...
