MicroRNAs or miRNAs are none coding RNAs with eclectic biological functions and mechanism. They also have remarkable and pathological implications in many serious diseases. Correspondingly, given their role as post-transcriptional gene expression regulators, they are included in several important physiological processes such as: cell signaling, development and cell differentiation. Thus, miRNAs perform as modulators of gene expression programs in diverse diseases, especially in cancer development, where they accomplish through the expression of genes which are essential for carcin... view more»
