Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive brain cancer with poor prognosis, even with current treatments combining surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Despite initial tumor removal, recurrence is common and driven by altered genetic profiles. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNAs with regulatory roles, are implicated in GBM progression through their influence on key hallmarks such as angiogenesis, proliferation, immune evasion, and resistance to therapy. This review systematically analyzed peer-reviewed literature from 2019 to 2025 to evaluate recent findings on miRNAs in GBM pathogenesis. Studies reveal differential miRNA expression in GBM models and their involvement in tumor biology via modulation of target genes. Understanding miRNA networks, along with the tumor microenvironment and immune interactions, may enable the identification of diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers. Targeting both tumor and associated immune components presents a promising direction for future GBM therapies.
期刊介绍：
Clinical and Translational Oncology is an international journal devoted to fostering interaction between experimental and clinical oncology. It covers all aspects of research on cancer, from the more basic discoveries dealing with both cell and molecular biology of tumour cells, to the most advanced clinical assays of conventional and new drugs. In addition, the journal has a strong commitment to facilitating the transfer of knowledge from the basic laboratory to the clinical practice, with the publication of educational series devoted to closing the gap between molecular and clinical oncologists. Molecular biology of tumours, identification of new targets for cancer therapy, and new technologies for research and treatment of cancer are the major themes covered by the educational series. Full research articles on a broad spectrum of subjects, including the molecular and cellular bases of disease, aetiology, pathophysiology, pathology, epidemiology, clinical features, and the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of cancer, will be considered for publication.
