Forensic Context

A review of human studies identified 197 miRNAs associated with wound healing, burn wound healing, and scarring, with the miR-588 being significantly upregulated in deep partial thickness burn skin four days post-burn compared to normal skin [Siu et al. DOI:10.1111/wrr.13100]. A study in humans demonstrated that the miR-588 is among miRNAs uniquely detected in semen fluids [Shimaa Ahmed Alsaeed et al. DOI:10.1007/s12024-024-00831-6].
