Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a form of blood cancer, in which DNA is mutated to produce abnormal B cell lymphocytes. CLL induces the cells to differentially regulate the expression of specific miRNA, producing miRNA with specific cancer rela

The prevailing hypothesis for pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) proposes that amyloid-beta (A[Beta]) peptides are the toxic element. Small oligomers of A[Beta] are believed to induce uncontrolled, neurotoxic ion flux across cellular membranes. Th
