Project Abstract

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of gene expression and have been implicated in various biological processes, including cancer progression. This research project aims to investigate the role of miRNAs in cancer progression and explore their therapeutic implications. The study begins with an introduction providing background information on miRNAs and their significance in cancer biology. The problem statement highlights the need to understand the specific mechanisms by which miRNAs contribute to cancer progression. The objectives of the study include identifying key miRNAs involved in cancer progression, elucidating their molecular mechanisms of action, and exploring potential therapeutic strategies targeting these miRNAs. The limitations of the study are acknowledged, such as the complexity of cancer biology and the challenges associated with targeting miRNAs therapeutically. The scope of the study is defined in terms of focusing on specific cancer types and key miRNAs known to be involved in their progression. The significance of the study lies in its potential to uncover novel therapeutic targets and strategies for cancer treatment. The structure of the research is outlined, including the chapters on literature review, research methodology, discussion of findings, and conclusion. The literature review encompasses ten key areas, including the role of miRNAs in cancer initiation, progression, metastasis, drug resistance, and potential biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis. The research methodology section details the experimental approaches and techniques employed to investigate miRNA function in cancer cells, including cell culture, molecular biology assays, and bioinformatics analysis. The discussion of findings presents seven key insights derived from the research data, such as the identification of specific miRNAs dysregulated in cancer cells and their effects on target gene expression. In conclusion, this research project sheds light on the intricate role of miRNAs in cancer progression and highlights their potential as therapeutic targets in cancer treatment. The study contributes to the growing body of knowledge on miRNA biology and provides valuable insights into the development of novel cancer therapies. Overall, this research project underscores the importance of understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer progression and the potential of miRNAs as therapeutic agents.
