Role of Circulating MicroRNA in Diabetes Mellitus / 现代检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Diabetes mellitus has become the third threaten diseases second only to cardiovascular disease and tumor.Many re-searches demonstrated that the microRNAs(miRNAs)in blood related to the occurrence and development of diabetes melli-tus.Because of the non-invasion and repeatability of circulating miRNAs,the circulating miRNAs have a broad application prospect of diagnosis and prognosis evaluation for various types of diabetes.This overview arms to introduce the source and characters of circulating miRNA,and also the progress of circulating miRNA related to diabetes mellitus,so as to lay a foun-dation for further research.
