MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short (19 to 24 nucleotides), single-stranded, non-protein-coding RNAs that are powerful transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. Unlike small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), miRNAs are genomically encoded and play key roles in a range of normal cellular processes, including proliferation, apoptosis, and development.[1-4] Not surprisingly, miRNAs have also been implicated in a number of diseases, including cancer,[5-8] neurodegenerative disorders,[9-11] and diabetes,[12-14] and represent promising biomarker candidates for informative diagnostics. Despite their increasingly well-understood importance in gene regulation, the development of sensitive analytical techniques for the quantitation of multiple miRNAs has lagged behind. Furthermore, current methodologies for miRNA expression analysis are not applicable to a clinical setting where sample sizes are limited and assay cost and time-to-result is of tremendous importance.In contrast to most nucleic acid analysis technologies that advantageously utilize the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to increase the amount of the target sequence, miRNAs are not easily amplified on account of their small size, which prohibits standard primer hybridization.[15] Although creative approaches that enable reverse transcriptase-PCR amplification have been developed,[16-18] many conventional miRNA analyses are prone to sequence-biased amplification or hindered by the need for large amounts of sample. The most widely reported miRNA analysis technique, Northern blotting, requires substantial amounts of starting material, is extremely laborious, and is not amenable to large-scale multiplexing.[19] Recently, a number of new miRNA analysis methods have been reported that feature high sensitivity, but often at the expense of assay simplicity and scalability, multiplexing capability, or rapid analysis time.[20-27]
