miRNA

Log2(Fold Change)

Relevance to present objective

miR-714

5.19

Significantly upregulated in rodent thymic lymphoma cells at six months post-TBI74

miR-3971

5.02

Stimulates cellular production

miR-150-5p

4.80

Cross-species validated radiation marker for time- and dose-dependent reduction in expression in plasma8. We found subsequent reduction in expressions in the Mid (−1.31) and Late phases (−1.53).

miR-5120

4.76

Decreased in hematopoietic progenitor cells exposed to pollutants, like benzene75

miR-5104

4.63

Another candidate to be decreased in hematopoietic progenitor cells exposed to pollutants, like benzene75

miR-204-5p

−5.24

Reduced serum load, an established oncogenic marker76

miR-96-5p

−6.14

Oncogenic marker and apoptosis regulator77

miR-124-3p

−6.25

Decreased load promotes cancer78

miR-9-5p

−6.57

Reduced expression as marker of bone-related cancer79

miR-211-5p

−7.21

Overexpressed miR-211-5p and miR-204-5p promote resistance against melanoma80
