miRTex Results API

APIhttp://research.bioinformatics.udel.edu/miRTex/restful/pmid
Submit methodGET
Submit contentA list of PMIDs, seperated by comma.
ReturnA list of miRTex results. Each element in the list is a hash table, consisting of 7 fields: 'pmid', 'relation', 'mirna', 'gene', 'trigger', 'directness' and 'sentence'. The list is encoded as a json string. The value of 'relation' can be 'miRNA2Gene' or 'Gene2miRNA', indicating the miRNA is regulating the gene or the opposite. The value of 'directness' can be 'direct' (miRNA-target relation), 'unknown' (miRNA-gene regulation), or 'N/A' for gene-miRNA regulation.
RestrictionPlease submit no more than 100 PMIDs for each request
