Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a distinct category of non-coding RNAs, exert multifaceted regulatory functions in a variety of organisms, including humans, animals, and plants. The inventory of identified miRNAs stands at approximately 60,000 among all species, and 1,926 in Homo sapiens manifest miRNA expression.
Method: Their theranostic role has been explored by researchers over the last few decades, positioning them as prominent therapeutic targets as our understanding of RNA targeting advances.
