Context: Circulating MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as novel biomarkers for tumour. Objective: Evaluate the diagnostic potential of plasma miR-200b-3p in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Materials and methods: miR-200b-3p was detected by qRT-PCR in paired pre-operative and post-operative plasma...
