Clinical Trial Summary

MicroRNAs were shown to play an important role in regulating pain-processing in a wide range of experimental models and clinical pain disorders. Thus, the aim of the present study is to evaluate a set of Micro-RNAs as diagnostic biomarkers of pain intensity in adolescents with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and to correlate with inflammatory markers and pain related comorbidities.


Clinical Trial Description

The present study was performed to evaluate a set of Micro-RNAs as diagnostic biomarkers of pain intensity in adolescents with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and to correlate with inflammatory markers and pain related comorbidities. Thus, a total of 150 adolescents aged (12-18 years) were invited to participate in this study. They are classified into two groups; adolescents with CFS (n=100) and healthy control (n=50). RT-PCR and immunoassay analysis were used to estimate miRNAs (miR-558, miR-146a, miR-150, miR-124, and miR-143) and immune-inflammatory markers (IL-6, TNF-α, COX-2) respectively. ;
