Urine miR-21-5p and miR-200c-3p as potential non-invasive biomarkers in patients with prostate cancer.

The overexpressions of miR-21 found in this study could be a potential non-invasive diagnostic tool for patients with PCa. Despite the significant results in our study, the use of micro-RNA in urine samples may vary due to epigenetic variation. Further studies with larger populations are required to investigate the role of miR-21 and miR-200c as biomarkers in PCa.
