Forensic Context
A study in humans identified the circMGA as a down-regulated, exonic circRNA that is co-differentially expressed in both plasma and lung tissue from patients with sepsis-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) compared to non-ARDS controls [Guo et al. DOI:10.1016/j.lfs.2021.119566].
