The multifaceted role of microRNAs in colorectal cancer: pathogenesis and therapeutic implications
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression and their dysregulation is involved in various diseases, including tumors. Among these, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the result of both genetic and epigenetic alterations with miRNAs playing a key pathogenetic role. Although numerous studies have investigated the most frequently dysregulated miRNAs in CRC, there is still no consensus on the specific role of individual miRNAs in the mechanisms leading to tumorigenesis, tumor progression, and the development of chemoresistance. This lack of clarity highlights the need for a deeper understanding of miRNA functions in CRC. Therefore, this review aims to clarify the role of miRNAs in CRC by examining their involvement in major oncogenic pathways, highlighting key miRNAs implicated in the disease, and exploring their potential as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. By providing a comprehensive overview, we hope to shed light on the complex and multifaceted roles of miRNAs in CRC, which could pave the way for more effective CRC monitoring and the development of miRNA-guided therapeutic strategies.
期刊介绍:
Non-coding RNA Research aims to publish high quality research and review articles on the mechanistic role of non-coding RNAs in all human diseases. This interdisciplinary journal will welcome research dealing with all aspects of non-coding RNAs-their biogenesis, regulation and role in disease progression. The focus of this journal will be to publish translational studies as well as well-designed basic studies with translational and clinical implications. The non-coding RNAs of particular interest will be microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), U-RNAs/small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), exosomal/extracellular RNAs (exRNAs), Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs. Topics of interest will include, but not limited to: -Regulation of non-coding RNAs -Targets and regulatory functions of non-coding RNAs -Epigenetics and non-coding RNAs -Biological functions of non-coding RNAs -Non-coding RNAs as biomarkers -Non-coding RNA-based therapeutics -Prognostic value of non-coding RNAs -Pharmacological studies involving non-coding RNAs -Population based and epidemiological studies -Gene expression / proteomics / computational / pathway analysis-based studies on non-coding RNAs with functional validation -Novel strategies to manipulate non-coding RNAs expression and function -Clinical studies on evaluation of non-coding RNAs The journal will strive to disseminate cutting edge research, showcasing the ever-evolving importance of non-coding RNAs in modern day research and medicine.
