Plasma levels of several microRNAs (miRNAs) are elevated in Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A) and could be used as biomarkers in clinical trials, according to new research. Wang et al. used next-generation sequencing and quantitative PCR to compare miRNA levels in individuals with CMT1A and healthy controls. Several muscle-associated miRNAs and a group of miRNAs highly expressed in Schwann cells were increased in CMT1A. The researchers were able to use some of these miRNAs to distinguish between CMT1A and control samples, suggesting utility as biomarkers of disease.
