Several approaches for miRNA expression analysis have been developed in recent years. In this article, we provide an updated and comprehensive review of available qPCR-based methods for miRNA expression analysis and discuss their advantages and disadvantages. Existing techniques involve the use of stem-loop reverse transcription-PCR, polyadenylation of RNAs, ligation of adapters or RT with complex primers, using universal or miRNA-specific qPCR primers and/or probes. Many of these methods are oriented towards the expression analysis of mature miRNAs and few are designed for the study of pre-miRNAs and pri-miRNAs. We also discuss findings from articles that compare results from existing methods. Finally, we suggest key points for the improvement of available techniques and for the future development of additional methods.
