Abstract
Hypoxia pathway and aberrant miRNA expression profile play crucial roles in the development of various cancers. Recent studies have emphasized that there are many collaborations in this cases because both of them are involved in cancer cell processes, including differentiation, metastasis, and cell proliferation and signaling pathways. Further studies have elucidated that miRNAs affect the hypoxia route, and more interestingly, the hypoxia pathway also affects miRNAs expression profile. The literature review summarizes the fundamental roles of hypoxia-related miRNAs in different cancers. The mutual interactions between miRNAs and hypoxia are a new layer of complexity in cancer hypoxia, which might be helpful in controlling cancer progression. It is also possible that the hypoxia pathway is initiated by miRNAs. In contrast, the hypoxia pathway regulates the expression of a large group of miRNAs. In this review for the first time, we discussed the significant interactions between hypoxia and miRNAs in order to determine new perspectives for new therapeutic aims in the field of cancer.

Advances in Nanomedicines and Targeted Therapies for Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with high incidence and mortality rates despite advancements in treatment strategies. Conventional therapies often face limitations such as systemic toxicity, drug resistance, and suboptimal targeting. The advent of nanomedicines and innovative drug delivery systems offers new hope for overcoming these challenges and ...read more
Discovery of Lead compounds targeting transcriptional regulation
Transcriptional regulation plays key physiological functions in body growth and development. Transcriptional dysregulation is one of the important biomarkers of tumor genesis and progression, which is involved in regulating tumor cell processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role in angiogenesis and promotes tumor ...read more
Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes that aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. The resynthesis of telomeres is supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergo ...read more
