Profiling of circulating microRNAs in patients with Barrett’s esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma

Background Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been suggested as novel markers for various diseases. The goal of this pilot study was to identify circulating miRNAs differentially expressed comparing Barrett’s esophagus (BE), esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), and controls.
