Research: Distinguishing ME/CFS & FM

Posted on 02/23/2023 by wames

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 →
