Circulating MiR-133a as a biomarker predicts cardiac hypertrophy in chronic hemodialysis patients.

Circulating MiR-133a as a biomarker predicts cardiac hypertrophy in chronic hemodialysis patients.

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small ribonucleotides regulating gene expression. MicroRNAs are present in the blood in a remarkably stable form and have emerged as potential diagnostic markers in patients with cardiovascular disease. Our study aimed to assess circulating miR-133a levels in MHD p...
