New Perspectives in Adenomyosis Pathogenesis With Epigenetic Analysis and miRNAs
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Diagnostic test
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
Objectives: To identify differentially expressed miRNAs in the blood of adenomyosis patients in view to develop new diagnostic methods Hypotheses Circulating miRNAs may be abnormally expressed in patients suffering from adenomyosis and could be used to diagnose the disease Study Design Blood samples will be collected from healthy subjects and adenomyosis patients and miRNAs will be isolated and analyzed to detect potential differences.
