title: MicroRNAs in cardiovascular disease.
abstract: Rapid and accurate diagnosis of heart attacks-and the assessment of damage-are critical for improving coronary care. Mature microRNAs (miRNAs) are abundant, easily measured, and relatively stable in blood plasma. If they prove indicative of disease states, miRNAs measured from peripheral blood may be a particularly attractive source for routine clinical assessments.
