Deregulation of Serum MicroRNA Expression Is Associated with Cigarette Smoking and Lung Cancer

<div>Evaluation of serums let-7i-3p and miR-154-5p as potential biomarkers of smoking-related lung cancer. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses of serums let-7i-3p (a) and miR-154-5p (b) were performed to discriminate patients with smoking-related lung cancer from nonsmokers. The AUCs for serums let-7i-3p and miR-154-5p were 0.892 and 0.957, respectively.</div>
