Small RNA content in mouse serum upon S.mansoni infection
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-coding RNA that play important roles in disease processes in animals and are present in a highly stable cell-free form in body fluids. Here we examine the capacity of host and parasite miRNAs to serve as tissue or serum biomarkers of Schistosoma mansoni infection. Sequencing of small RNAs from serum confirmed the presence of miRNAs and revealed 11 parasite-derived miRNAs that were detectable by 8 weeks post S.mansoni infection.
