Biomarker research: a unique circular RNA expression pattern in ME/CFS
Australian researchers examined circRNAs in people with ME/CFS before and after 2 exercise tests. CircRNA plays a regulating role in gene expression, and an essential role in the process of biological development…, as well as a critical role in … Continue reading
Research: Distinguishing ME/CFS & FM
Distinguishing ME/CFS and FM through gene expression Canadian researchers have measured the activity (expression) of genes in people with ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia. 3 of the 11 miRNA were over-expressed in ME/CFS and under-expressed in FM. These three miRNAs could … Continue reading
