The degree of microRNA-34b/c methylation in serum-circulating DNA is associated with malignant pleural mesothelioma

Our digital MSP assay can quantify miR-34b/c methylation in serum-circulating DNA. The degree of miR-34b/c methylation in serum-circulating DNA is associated with MPM, suggesting that this approach might be useful for the establishment of a new detection system for MPM.
