Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is among the most aggressive cancers with short life expectancy in the range of 12 to 15 months, which is only 3 months without medical treatment. MicroRNA profiling of 734 human and human-associated viral miRNAs was performed on blood plasma samples from 16 healthy individuals and 16 patients with GBM. One of the most important results is the identification of a group of ten candidate miRNAs exhibiting diagnostic as well as prognostic potential. Among them, hsa miR 592 and hsa miR 514a 3p have not been previously described in GBM and thus represent novel candidates for selective biomarkers.
