Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that progresses over time and is identified by the development of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid deposits in the brain. Mounting evidence has revealed that microRNAs (miRNAs) are significantly involved in AD progression, and may be used as promising biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis. Nevertheless, the existing body of data regarding dysregulated circulating miRNAs in AD and their therapeutic applications are characterized by a lack of consistency.

Although brain amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide buildup is the main cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD), mitochondrial abnormalities can also contribute to the illness's development, as either a primary or secondary factor, as programmed cell death and efficient energy generation depend on the proper operation of mitochondria. As a result, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) may play a crucial role in ensuring that nuclear genes related to mitochondria and mitochondrial genes function normally. Interestingly, a significant number of recent studies have focused on the impact of ncRNAs on the expression of nucleus and mitochondrial genes.

Purpose: The exact molecular and cellular processes that cause benign urological diseases in the stromal and epithelial components of the urinary tract are yet unknown. Reviewing and analyzing the data linking microRNAs (miRNAs) expression in the pathophysiology of benign urological conditions, including overactive bladder (OAB), bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC), and Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is the objective of the current systematic review.

Materials And Methods: Evidence including all case-control, cohort, and cross-sectional studies that measure participants' MicroRNA as a biomarker for benign urological diseases has been gathered in January 2024, through searching MEDLINE via PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and ProQuest databases.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a distinctive clinical syndrome with several causes and clinical manifestations. Aside from an infectious cause, PD is a rapidly developing neurological disorder with a global rise in frequency. Notably, improved knowledge of molecular pathways and the developing novel diagnostic methods may result in better therapy for PD patients.

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a serious mental condition with an unknown cause. According to the reports, Brodmann Area 10 (BA10) is linked to the pathology and cortical dysfunction of SCZ, which demonstrates a number of replicated findings related to research on SCZ and the dysfunction in tasks requiring cognitive control in particular. Genetics' role in the pathophysiology of SCZ is still unclear.
