microRNAs trip down memory lane

EMBO Mol Med. 2021 Oct 20:e14997. doi: 10.15252/emmm.202114997. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA new study by Islam et al, in this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine, reports three microRNAs in the blood that are linked to inter-individual differences in cognition, prior to any sign of cognitive decline. The novel miRNA biomarkers may assist in predicting the risk of cognitive decline and later of developing dementia and can contribute to decision strategies about early therapeutic interventions.PMID:34672084 | DOI:10.15252/emmm.202114997
