miR-203 Expression in Exfoliated Cells of Tongue Coating Represents a Sensitive and Specific Biomarker of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Figure 2

miR-203 expression in patients with GERD and Ctrls. The levels of miR-203 in exfoliated cells of the tongue were evaluated by qRT-PCR in patients with GERD () and Ctrls (). The median level of expression is represented in each group by a solid line. The values are normalized to U6 expression levels and displayed in log 10 scale on -axis.
