Genetic variation of the gene coding for microRNA-204 (miR-204) is a risk factor in acute myeloid leukaemia

Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are small molecules known to be involved in post-transcriptional gene expression. Many of them have been shown to influence risk for various diseases. Recent studies suggest that lower expression of miR-204, a gene coding for miRNA-204, is correlated wi...
