Abstract
This pilot study evaluated the expression of seven selected miRNAs in human carotid plaques from a small group of patients and suggested a potential regulatory role for these miRNAs in evolution of the plaque towards growth, instability and rupture. Studies based on larger sample sizes are required to determine the potential use of miR-100, miR-125a, miR-127, miR-133a, miR-145, and miR-221 as biomarkers or therapeutic targets for stroke.
