- Abstract
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a poor patient survival rate in comparison with other cancer types, even after targeted therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Therefore, a great deal needs to be done to gain a better understanding of the biology and identification of prognostic and predictive markers for the development of superior therapies. The microRNAs (miRNAs) belong to small non-coding RNAs that regulate post-transcriptional gene expression. Several shreds of evidence indicate that miRNAs play an important role in the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer. Here we review the recent developments in miRNAs and their target role in the development, metastasis, migration, and invasion.
