Forensic Context

A study in preterm human newborns with early-onset sepsis demonstrated that the miR-93-3p was significantly up-regulated in cord blood plasma compared to gestational age-matched controls [Janec et al. DOI:10.14712/fb2023069050173]. A study in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) demonstrated that the relative abundance of the miR-93-3p in plasma at day 2 post-total-body irradiation correlated with the time to severe neutropenia, identifying it within an 11-miRNA panel predictive of hematopoietic acute radiation syndrome [Rogers et al. DOI:10.1667/RADE-21-00043.1].
