Abstract:
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a solid tumor that develops from astrocytes, is one of the most aggressive types of brain cancer. While there have been improvements in the efficacy of treating GBM, many problems remain, especially with traditional therapy methods. Therefore, recent studies have extensively focused on developing novel therapeutic agents for combating glioblastoma. Natural polyphenols have been studied for their potential as chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic agents due to their wide range of positive qualities, including antioxidant, antiinflammatory, cytotoxic, antineoplastic, and immunomodulatory activities. These natural compounds have been suggested to act via modulated various macromolecules within cells, including microRNAs (miRNAs), which play a crucial role in the molecular milieu. In this article, we focus on how polyphenols may inhibit tumor growth by influencing the expression of key miRNAs that regulate oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes.
