This review comprehensively examines the role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis and progression of common spinal tumors, including ependymoma, astrocytoma, meningioma, and metastasis, based on existing studies using both human and in vitro models. Several miRNAs have been identified as dysregulated in these tumor types, influencing key cellular processes such as proliferation, migration, and apoptosis. The potential of miRNAs as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic biomarkers is explored, highlighting their value in guiding personalized treatment approaches.
