NEase-based amplification for detection of miRNA, multiple miRNAs and circRNA

Abstract

MiRNAs are particularly desirable biomarkers for the diagnosis of many cancers, but the methods for simultaneous detection of multiple miRNAs are rarely published. In addition, circRNAs are a novel class of non-coding RNAs and it has been accepted that circRNAs participate in regulating various biological processes. Herein, we design a method using NEase which has highly selectivity and activity to amplify fluorescence signal, so single miRNA, circRNA and multiple miRNAs could be simply quantified through our proposed assay. Furthermore, this method also can detect miRNA level in different cell lines.
