Study Findings on Lung Cancer Reported by a Researcher at University of Campania (Circulating microRNAs in Cancer: A 5-Year Update with a Focus on Breast and Lung Cancers).

A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Campania in Naples, Italy, focused on the role of circulating microRNAs (c-miRNAs) in cancer research, specifically breast cancer (BC) and lung cancer (LC). The study analyzed over 150 papers published between 2018 and 2023, highlighting the effectiveness of c-miRNAs in areas such as early detection, therapeutic resistance, recurrence risk, and novel detection platforms. The researchers also examined the deregulated c-miRNAs shared between BC and LC papers, with a particular focus on miR-21 and miR-145. The study concludes that c-miRNAs in cancer research remain a significant topic of interest, with blood being the most investigated matrix. [Extracted from the article]
