Forensic Context

A review of human studies identified 197 miRNAs associated with wound healing, burn wound healing, and scarring, with specific expression patterns in human skin tissue and cells post-burn and in hypertrophic scar tissue [Siu et al. DOI:10.1111/wrr.13100]. A study in humans demonstrated that the mir-33b was profiled in the prefrontal cortex of depressed suicide completers and psychiatrically healthy controls, but no significant dysregulation was reported in this cohort [Lopez et al. DOI:10.1017/S1461145713000941].
