In the study were used RT-PCR based miRNA (miR-qRT-PCR) detection methods. In NSCLC patients in accordance with control, miR221 and miR222 are expressed 1.46 and 1.63-fold, respectively, and while the difference of expression is statistically significant for miR221 (p:0.0001), significant difference did not be detected for miR222 (p:0.08)View this table:Table 1.
