Figure 1. Direct quantification of circulating miRNAs using plasma.
(A) Schematic representation of the three methods (M1, M2 and M3) directly analyzing circulating miRNAs from plasma. (B) QRT-PCR analysis of small RNA 5s rRNA from aliquots of same plasma sample using methods M1, M2 and M3, respectively. (C) QRT-PCR analysis of miR-16 from aliquots of same plasma sample using methods M1, M2 and M3, respectively.
