Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is one of the most prevalent forms of leukemia in adults. Inactivation of the DLEU7 gene is frequently observed in patients with CLL. Furthermore, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been observed to have a critical role in the pathogenesis of several cancers, including leukemia. Considering the tumor-suppressive role of DLEU7, as well as the tumor suppressor or oncogenic role of microRNAs (miRNAs), the aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential miRNAs targeting the DLEU7 gene in B-cells and explore expression changes these genes in the plasma of B-CLL patients.
