Diagnosis/Treatment Option for Head-and-Neck Tumor Using Micro-RNA as Biomarker

摘要

Disclosed are: a method for using a particular microRNA as a biomarker for head-and-neck tumor; a method for the determination of head-and-neck tumor; a kit for the determination of head-and-neck tumor, and the like. The present invention is characterized in that at least one microRNA selected from the group of microRNAs consisting of miR-455-3p, miR-455-5p, miR-130b, miR-130b*, miR-801, miR-196a, miR-21, miR-31, miR-133b, miR-145 and miR-375 is used as a biomarker for head-and-neck tumor.
