Abstract
Brain tumors have been deadly cancers for years, and in most cases they are difficult to diagnose in their early stages. For this reason, researchers need to develop low-cost, sensitive methods for examining cancer biomarkers. Such biomarkers include microRNA. MicroRNA expression in various body fluids shows a high correlation with cancer. A number of studies have demonstrated changes in microRNA expression in cerebrospinal fluid and blood samples from patients with brain tumors. New biomarkers such as microRNAs may help diagnose brain tumors at the very beginning of the disease, enabling early treatment and increasing the chances of survival. This review describes the diagnostic role of microRNAs and the prospects for their use as biomarkers in patients with brain tumors.
期刊介绍：
Cancer Management and Research is an international, peer reviewed, open access journal focusing on cancer research and the optimal use of preventative and integrated treatment interventions to achieve improved outcomes, enhanced survival, and quality of life for cancer patients. Specific topics covered in the journal include:
◦Epidemiology, detection and screening
◦Cellular research and biomarkers
◦Identification of biotargets and agents with novel mechanisms of action
◦Optimal clinical use of existing anticancer agents, including combination therapies
◦Radiation and surgery
◦Palliative care
◦Patient adherence, quality of life, satisfaction
The journal welcomes submitted papers covering original research, basic science, clinical & epidemiological studies, reviews & evaluations, guidelines, expert opinion and commentary, and case series that shed novel insights on a disease or disease subtype.
