Abstract
Prostate cancer remains the second leading cause of death in men. It is imperative to improve patient management in identifying bio-markers for personalized treatment. We demonstrated miR-15/miR-16 loss and miR-21 up-regulation and deregulation of their target genes, which represent a promising signature for ameliorating therapy assignment and risk assessment in prostate cancer.
