Increased Levels of miRNA-146a in Serum and Histologic Samples of Patients with Uveal Melanoma.

abstract：:In spite of recent therapeutic advances, multiple myeloma (MM) remains a malignancy with very low curability. This has been partly attributed to the existence of a drug-resistant subpopulation known as cancer stem cells (CSCs). MM-CSCs are equipped with the necessary tools that render them highly resistant to virtuall...
