Abstract
SnoRNAs U38 and U48 are significantly elevated in the serum of patients developing cartilage damage at 1 year after ACL injury. Serum levels of U38 have the potential to facilitate early diagnosis of patients with cartilage damage after ACL injury. This study suggests serum non-coding RNAs may serve as novel noninvasive biomarkers for the detection and assessment of cartilage damage after ACL injury.
