Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well established epigenetic modifiers. There is a lot of work being done to identify the evolutionary transfer of miRNAs both at intra- and interspecific levels. In this hypothesis-driven review, we have suggested a possible reason as to why miR-150 can be a promising diagnostic biomarker for prostate cancer using theories of evolution, bio-accumulation, and interspecific transfer of miRNAs.

Additional Information:	Correction published as Non-Coding RNA 2016, 2(2), 6; doi:10.3390/ncrna2020006: The authors wish to make the following correction to this paper [1]. Reference 28 has been renumbered to 29, and the following affirmation in the original text: “Dezhong et al. have demonstrated that miR-150 was overexpressed in PCa cells at both the mRNA and protein levels” has been substituted by: “Waltering et al., 2011, reported that miR-150* along with three other miRNAs, namely, miR-10a, miR-141, and miR-1225-5p, among 17 miRNAs, expressed to have >1.5- fold changes at the expression levels in PCa cells and in a minimum of two intact-castration xenograft pair. It has been shown that miR-150 was overexpressed in PCa cells.” Thereby, we include the research done by another group—Waltering et al., 2011—who also found interesting results working on PCa cell-lines and xenografts and the effect of miRNAs (reference no. 31 in the edited version). References 29 and 30 were initially cited unintentionally on page 2 of the article. These references have been deleted from page number 2 and renumbered to 38 and 39 on page 3.
