Journal ArticleDOI
An estimate of the total number of true human miRNAs.
Julia Alles,Tobias Fehlmann,Ulrike Fischer,Christina Backes,Galata,Marie Minet,Martin Hart,Masood Abu-Halima,Friedrich A. Grässer,Hans-Peter Lenhof,Andreas Keller,Eckart Meese +11 more
TL;DR: The experimentally validated miRNAs will contribute to revising targetomes hypothesized by utilizing falsely annotated miRNA candidates, 1115 of which are currently annotated in miRBase V22.
Journal ArticleDOI
Altered microRNA expression profiles of human spermatozoa in patients with different spermatogenic impairments
Masood Abu-Halima,Mohamad Eid Hammadeh,Jana Schmitt,Petra Leidinger,Andreas Keller,Eckart Meese,Christina Backes +6 more
TL;DR: The results reveal an extended number of miRNAs that were differentially expressed in asthenozoospermic and oligoasthenozoespermic males compared with normozoos permic males and provide evidence for analysis of miRNA profiles as a future diagnosing tool for male infertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNA expression profiles in human testicular tissues of infertile men with different histopathologic patterns
Masood Abu-Halima,Christina Backes,Petra Leidinger,Andreas Keller,Abdel Monem H. Lubbad,Mohamad Eid Hammadeh,Eckart Meese +6 more
TL;DR: New insights into specific miRNAs that are expressed in infertile men with different histopathologic patterns are provided, suggesting a role of miRNAAs in regulating male germ and somatic cells and that their alteration is associated with reproductive abnormalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Panel of five microRNAs as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and assessment of male infertility
Masood Abu-Halima,Mohamad Eid Hammadeh,Christina Backes,Ulrike Fischer,Petra Leidinger,Abdel Monem H. Lubbad,Andreas Keller,Eckart Meese +7 more
TL;DR: The finding suggests that these five miRNAs have potential as novel noninvasive biomarkers to diagnose patients with subfertility and the combination with other conventional tests would improve the diagnostic accuracy for detecting patients with different forms of NOA.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The findings of the study suggest that the identified patterns of miRNAs may be used as a component of a minimally invasive lung cancer test, complementing imaging, sputum cytology, and biopsy tests.
