Exploring the role of noncoding RNAs in cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and precision medicine

This review article studies the complex field of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in cancer biology, focusing on their potential use as biomarkers and therapeutic targets. NcRNAs include circular RNAs (circRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs). We discuss how ncRNAs affect gene express...

Description
Summary:This review article studies the complex field of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in cancer biology, focusing on their potential use as biomarkers and therapeutic targets. NcRNAs include circular RNAs (circRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs). We discuss how ncRNAs affect gene expression in cancerous cells, the spread of cancer, and metastasis. The article illustrates the complex pathways through which ncRNAs can affect oncogenesis, tumor suppression, and therapeutic resistance. It also assesses the potential clinical uses of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including their utility in cancer diagnosis, and prognosis. Besides, their potential for personalized cancer therapy is documented. Finally, it is concluded that understanding the role of ncRNA is of clinical importance regarding carcinogenesis, cancer diagnosis, and personalized therapy.
