Project Abstract

Abstract
Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with a pressing need for improved understanding of its underlying molecular mechanisms for better diagnostics and therapeutics. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators of gene expression and have been implicated in various aspects of cancer development and progression. This research project aims to explore the role of miRNAs in cancer, focusing on their involvement in the initiation, progression, and metastasis of various cancer types. The research begins with a comprehensive review of the current literature on miRNAs and cancer, highlighting the key miRNAs implicated in different cancer types and their known functions. Through a systematic analysis of existing studies, this project aims to identify common miRNA signatures associated with cancer development and progression, as well as potential biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. The methodology section outlines the experimental approaches to be employed in this research, including miRNA profiling, functional assays, and bioinformatics analysis. By integrating these diverse methodologies, this project seeks to unravel the intricate network of miRNA-mediated regulatory pathways in cancer cells and their impact on tumor biology. The findings from this research are expected to shed light on the specific roles of miRNAs in cancer development and progression, providing valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms driving tumorigenesis and metastasis. The discussion section delves into the implications of these findings for cancer research and clinical practice, emphasizing the potential of miRNAs as therapeutic targets and prognostic markers in cancer management. In conclusion, this research project contributes to the growing body of knowledge on the role of miRNAs in cancer by providing a comprehensive analysis of their functions and mechanisms of action in cancer development and progression. By elucidating the complex interplay between miRNAs and cancer biology, this study has the potential to advance our understanding of cancer pathogenesis and pave the way for the development of novel miRNA-based strategies for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
