Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with its progression characterized by complex molecular mechanisms. In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of gene expression with implications in cancer development and progression. This thesis aims to explore the role of miRNAs in cancer progression from a biochemical perspective. The introductory chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the study, presenting the background of the research area, the problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and the structure of the thesis. Additionally, key terms are defined to ensure clarity of concepts throughout the document. Chapter two delves into a detailed literature review that encompasses ten critical aspects related to miRNAs and cancer progression. This section synthesizes existing knowledge and identifies gaps in the field, setting the stage for the subsequent research methodology chapter. Chapter three outlines the research methodology employed in this study, detailing the experimental design, sample collection methods, data analysis techniques, and other relevant procedures. The chapter comprises at least eight sub-sections to provide a clear understanding of the research process. Chapter four presents an extensive discussion of the findings obtained through the study. The results are analyzed in the context of existing literature, highlighting the significance of miRNAs in cancer progression and identifying potential implications for future research and clinical applications. Finally, chapter five offers a comprehensive conclusion and summary of the project thesis. The key findings are summarized, and their implications are discussed in detail. The conclusion section also addresses the research objectives, limitations, and suggests avenues for further exploration in this field. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to expanding the understanding of the role of miRNAs in cancer progression from a biochemical perspective. The findings presented herein have the potential to advance the development of novel therapeutic strategies and diagnostic tools for combating cancer.
