University of Colorado Releases the Most Comprehensive Database of MicroRNA

Online, August 21, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Recently, the Cancer Center of the University of Colorado, released the most comprehensive database of microRNA in the journal of Nucleic Acids Research.

This is currently the most comprehensive database of microRNA and its targets. This database allows researchers to efficiently search disease-related microRNA gene pairings. In addition to demonstrate the relationship between microRNA and its target, this database also covers known drugs can affect microRNA, and has listed a variety of diseases associated with microRNA. It integrates 14 existing microRNA databases and associates findings related to microRNA, allowing researchers to conduct more flexible data analysis. When using this database, the user can enter the name of microRNA, gene, drug, disease, or any combination thereof. It is very convenient.

The study carried by the cancer center of the University of Colorado also provides a new tool to give researchers more meaningful results, and ultimately help people develop new disease treatment strategies.

"We need better ways to analyze data already acquired, otherwise we will get lost in the vast ocean of information", Said one of the researches in the cancer center. Therefore, without no doubt, it is an exciting news for researchers in the bio-medicine field.

However, many researchers still have one question. After searching out the disease-related microRNA gene pairings, where can they get these microRNA gene pairings in a short time? It is unwise to foster microRNA themselves as it is both time and money consuming.

Here, Creative Biogene can solve their problem. Creative Biogene is a leader in microRNA technologies and offers a one-stop solution for microRNA (miRNA) discovery, expression profiling and functional analysis needs. All analyses are performed by microRNA expert scientists who will ensure that the customers can get the best service throughout the project.
