Comparison miRNA expression between atherosclerotic and non-atherosclerotic ischemic stroke patients. Homo sapiens

The difference of circulating miRNA expressions by the presence of atherosclerosis in intra- and extra-cranial vessels were evaluated using serum of ischemic stroke patients. Overall design: Serum from atherosclerotic (n=7) and non-atherosclerotic (n=8) patients were collected and miRNAs were extracted for miRNA microarray.
