microRNA-208b expression was increased in the blood of patients with acute myocardial infarction, and may be used for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction molecular biomarkers.
Although miR-1 and miR-208b decreased (1.4-fold) and increased (1.2-fold), respectively, in the AMI samples compared to the controls, the significance of these changes was limited by our sample size.
