Abstract

Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), which make up a significant portion of the mammalian transcriptome and plays crucial regulatory roles in expression of genes and other biological processes, have recently been found. The most extensively researched of the sncRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), have been characterized in terms of their synthesis, roles, and significance in the tumor development. Its crucial function in the stem cell regulation, another class of sncRNAs known as aspirRNAs, has attracted attention in cancer research. The investigations have shown that long non-coding RNAs have a crucial role in controlling developmental stages, such as mammary gland development. Additionally, it has been discovered that lncRNA dysregulation precedes the development of several malignancies, including breast cancer. The functions of sncRNAs (including miRNAs and piRNAs) and lncRNAs in the onset and development of the breast cancer are described in this study. Additionally, future perspectives of various ncRNA-based diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic approaches also discussed.
