MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of noncoding small RNAs that act as negative regulators of gene expression. To identify miRNAs that may regulate human cell immortalization and carcinogenesis, we performed comparative miRNA array profiling of human normal and SV40-T antigen immortalized cells.

Despite the development of molecular classifications, and prognostic and predictive gene-expression signatures, microarray-based studies have not yielded definitive answers to many of the questions that remain germane for the successful implementation of personalized medicine. Similar challenges are likely to be encountered in translating next-generation sequencing data into clinically useful information. Needs Challenges Weigelt B, Pusztai L, Ashworth A, Reis-Filho JS.
