Question 1

Equine sarcoids are the most common neoplastic disorder in equine. What was researched, in order to attempt to determine a prognosis for ES?

Answer 1

microRNA (miRNA) profiles were evaluated to determine if long-term development of ES tumors was possible. Horses with regression and progression of ES were monitored over a number of years. miRNA profiles were evaluated and it was determined that 14 miRNAs were expressed differently in those with progression vs those with regression.
