micro RNAs in Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer is the fifth most common cancer death in women. Currently, gynecological examination, evaluation with ultrasound and serum measurements such as CA-125 are the standard for ovarian cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, there is an intense need for new biomarkers that can lead to the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), short, protein-coding RNAs, are particularly useful stabilizing endogenous RNAs to become biomarkers in cancer. In this review, it is aimed to investigate the role of miRNAs in ovarian cancer studies conducted to date
