Abstract: Abstract:Cell free microRNAs have been found the be present in circulation recently, and displayed some characteristics of an ideal biomarker. Furthermore, circulating microRNAs have been verified and applied in diagnosis and prognosis of cancers and many other diseases. The study on function of circulating microRNAs has been put on agenda. This paper aimed to review the new findings in the field of circulating microRNAs as a novel biomarker for diseases.
Key words:circulation; microRNA; biomarker
