Abstract:
MicroRNAs ( miRNAs) are a kinds of small non-coding RNA that regulate the expression of gene at the posttran-scriptional level and play important roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as proliferation , differentiation and apoptosis.Recently, it has been reported that miRNAs expression abnormalities are closely associated with the initiation and devel -opment of glioma .Moreover , the expression levels of some miRNA are specifically involved in the molecular pathogenesis of glioma , revealing their great potential as a class of novel biomarkers for cancers and therapeutic targets .In this review , we summarizes the lat-est researches on miRNA and glioma .
