Differential expression of microRNAs in hematopoietic cell lineages

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in a wide variety of normal and pathological cellular processes. A number of studies identified hematopoietic-specific miRNAs that are necessary for correct function of blood cells. Out of our microarray data, we chose 13 miRNAs that showed differential expression in peripheral blood cells (miR-15b, miR-16, miR-24, miR-30c, miR-106b, miR-142-3p, miR-142-5p, miR-150, miR-155, miR-181, miR-223, miR-342, and...
