Project Abstract

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that play crucial roles in the regulation of gene expression. In recent years, research has shown that dysregulation of miRNAs is associated with various diseases, including cancer. This project aims to explore the role of miRNAs in cancer biology, focusing on their impact on tumorigenesis, metastasis, and drug resistance mechanisms. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the project, discussing the background of the study, the problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definitions of key terms. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review, analyzing existing studies on miRNAs in cancer biology. The review covers ten key areas, including the biogenesis of miRNAs, their functions in cancer development, and their potential as diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Chapter 3 details the research methodology, outlining the experimental approaches used to investigate the role of miRNAs in cancer biology. This chapter includes sections on sample collection, miRNA profiling techniques, cell culture experiments, and data analysis methods. Chapter 4 presents the findings of the research, discussing seven key results related to the impact of miRNAs on cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and response to anticancer drugs. The chapter also explores the molecular mechanisms through which miRNAs regulate cancer-related pathways. Chapter 5 provides a conclusion and summary of the project research, highlighting the key findings and their implications for cancer biology. The chapter also discusses future research directions and potential applications of miRNAs as therapeutic targets in cancer treatment. Overall, this project contributes to the growing body of knowledge on the role of miRNAs in cancer biology, shedding light on the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying cancer development and progression. The findings of this study have the potential to advance our understanding of cancer pathogenesis and identify novel therapeutic strategies for combating this deadly disease.
