Aberrant expression of miR-127-3p and miR-144-3p have been revealed in several types of cancers. Methods Expression levels of miR-127-3p and miR-144-3p were detected in the plasma of patients with gastric cancer (GC) using fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction to recognize potential non-invasive biomarkers for GC and evaluated the relationship between their expression and clinicopathological parameters of GC. Results The results showed miR-127-3p and miR-144-3p expression levels were significantly decreased in plasma of GC patients (p = 0.003 and p less then 0.001, respectively) and the expression level of miR-144-3p was associated with tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis indicated the area of miR-127-3p and miR-144-3p under the ROC curve for GC diagnosis were 0.664 and 0.741, re-spectively (p less then 0.05). Conclusions The expression levels of miR-127-3p and -144-3p were downregulated in the plasma of GC patients that may participate in the pathological process of GC and act as potential tumor biomarkers.Background About forty-five years ago the advent of Sanger sequencing (Sanger and Coulson 1975) was revolutionary as it allowed deciphering of complete genome sequences. A second revolution came when next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies accelerated and cheapened genome sequencing. Recently, third generation/longread sequencing methods have appeared, which can directly detect epigenetic modifications on native DNA and allow whole-transcript sequencing without the need for assembly. Nanopore sequencing is one of these third-generation approaches, enabling a single molecule of DNA or RNA to be sequenced in real-time without the need for PCR amplification or chemical labelling of the sample. It works by monitoring changes to an electrical
