MicroRNA-based potential diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic applications in triple-negative breast cancer

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a distinct subtype of breast cancer characterized by high recurrence rates and poor prognosis compared to other breast cancers. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of various post-transcriptional gene and silence a broad set of target genes. Many recent studies have demonstrated that miRNAs play an important role in the initiation, promotion, malignant conversion, progression, and metastasis of TNBC. Therefore, the aim of this review is to focus on recent advancements of microRNAs-based potential applications in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer.
