Abstract

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common malignant tumor in East and Southeast Asia. In this review, it was discovered that miRNAs play a diverse role in the pathogenesis, biomarkers, and treatment strategies of NPC. However, the complex regulatory mechanisms of miRNAs in NPC have not been fully elucidated. This review investigates the potential use of circulating miRNAs as indicators of NPC and looks at how miRNAs affect the biological traits of NPC cells by controlling the Hippo and TGFβ/SMAD signalling pathways, which offers a fresh viewpoint for identifying and treating NPC. These results show the wide potential of miRNA therapy in conjunction with conventional therapy and serve as a guide for future studies and treatments of miRNA in NPC. However, the specific mechanism of miRNA in NPC still needs to be further explored. To support the development of precision treatment for NPC, future studies should concentrate on the relationship between miRNA and target genes as well as the impact of the tumour microenvironment.
