Exploring the Role of MicroRNAs in Cancer Progression: Implications for Diagnosis and Treatment

Project Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that play crucial roles in regulating gene expression and various cellular processes. In recent years, there has been growing interest in understanding the role of miRNAs in cancer progression, as dysregulation of miRNAs has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancer types. This research project aims to explore the specific role of miRNAs in cancer progression, with a focus on their implications for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
