Project Abstract

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that play critical roles in gene regulation and are increasingly recognized as key players in cancer progression. This research project aims to investigate the specific roles of miRNAs in cancer progression, focusing on their potential as diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets. The study will involve a comprehensive literature review of current knowledge on miRNAs in cancer, followed by experimental research to elucidate the mechanisms by which miRNAs contribute to cancer development and progression. Chapter one provides an introduction to the research topic, highlighting the background of the study, the problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definitions of key terms. The literature review in chapter two will cover ten key topics related to miRNAs in cancer, including their biogenesis, mechanisms of action, dysregulation in cancer, and potential clinical applications. Chapter three outlines the research methodology, detailing the experimental approach, sample collection and analysis, data interpretation methods, and ethical considerations. The discussion of findings in chapter four will present the results of the study, including the identification of specific miRNAs associated with cancer progression, their target genes, and potential therapeutic implications. This chapter will also explore the challenges and limitations of the research findings. In the conclusion and summary chapter five, the key findings of the research will be summarized, and their implications for cancer diagnosis and treatment will be discussed. The research abstract will conclude with recommendations for future research directions in the field of miRNAs and cancer progression. Overall, this project aims to advance our understanding of the role of miRNAs in cancer and contribute to the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for cancer patients.
