METHOD OF USING BOTH MIR-196A AND MIR-196B AS BIOMARKERS FOR DETECTING ORAL CANCER

摘要

A method of using miR-196a and miR-196b as biomarkers for oral cancer detection is provided with the steps of analyzing a sample from each of a plurality of human beings in terms of miR-196a and miR-196b wherein the miR-196a has a sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and miR-196b has a sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; and detecting one of the human beings to have oral cancer if intensity of either miR-196a or miR-196b of the sample belonging to the human being is higher than a predetermined value.
