Forensic Context

A study in humans demonstrated that the mir-4754 was not investigated as a candidate marker for body fluid identification in the comprehensive forensic analysis, which instead validated a four-miRNA panel (hsa-miR-891a-5p, hsa-miR-144-3p, hsa-miR-203a-3p, hsa-miR-124-3p) for robustly identifying venous blood, saliva, semen, vaginal secretion, and menstrual blood in single-source and aged samples [Sauer et al. DOI:10.1016/j.fsigen.2016.01.018]. A study in humans demonstrated that the mir-4754 was differentially expressed and shared across two pairs of monozygotic twins, with its expression profile analyzed via miRNA microarray and validated by qRT-PCR, indicating its potential as a biomarker for distinguishing genetically identical individuals [Xiao et al. DOI:10.1016/j.fsigen.2019.05.003].
