Summary
Caution, this is an AI generated summary based on literature. This may have errors. ?

MIR520F is a microRNA gene that is part of the C19MC miRNA cluster, which includes a group of 46 miRNA genes [PMC7378193]. It has been identified in various studies involving different types of cancer and has been detected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of glioblastoma patients [PMC7014190]. The expression levels of MIR520F, along with other miRNAs, have been found to correlate with glioblastoma tissue biopsy samples and are associated with tumor volume, showing a 67% sensitivity and 80% specificity in distinguishing tumor presence [PMC9965735]. MIR520F is also part of a larger group of microRNAs detected in CSF samples that are being studied for their potential roles in cancer diagnostics [PMC8833415]. In breast invasive carcinoma research, cumulative expression data for the C19MC miRNA cluster, which includes MIR520F, has been processed to understand its role in cancer gene expression [PMC6193703]. However, MIR520F has also been identified as being downregulated in the villus tissue from women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), suggesting its potential involvement beyond oncology and into reproductive health processes [PMC5572592].
