Forensic Context

A study in humans investigating circulating and tissue miRNAs in a case of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) found that the mir-4446-3p showed no significant expression differences between the SUDEP case and control cases in plasma and hippocampal tissue [De Matteis et al. DOI:10.1016/J.Legalmed.2017.12.003].
