Abstract: In the last 10 years, the discovery that the human genome is able to generate a large number of RNAs non coding for proteins (ncRNAs) has changed our way to approach the understanding and studying of biology. In particular, the discovery of several Long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) with tumor suppressor or oncogenic function, opened new horizons in molecular oncology research, diagnosis and potential therapies.
