MicroRNA
 miR-29c-3p miRNA A study revealed that miR-29c-3p promoted the malignant development of HCC by regulating the methylation of LATS1 caused by DNMT3B and inhibiting the anticancer function of the Hippo signaling pathway Simultaneous analysis of miRNA–mRNA in human meningiomas by integrating transcriptome, investigating the relationship between PTX3 and miR-29c [120, 121],
 miR-219-5p miRNA Overexpression of miR-219-5p can inhibit gastric cancer cell malignancy by targeting the liver receptor homolog-1/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways This microRNA expression signature predicts meningioma recurrence [120, 122]
 miR-190A miRNA A recent study showed that miR-190a is involved in estrogen receptor (ERα) signaling, causing inhibition of breast tumor metastasis While miR-190a is downregulated in aggressive neuroblastoma (NBL), its overexpression leads to the inhibition of tumor growth and prolonged dormancy periods in fast-growing tumors8 [120]
 miR-145 miRNA miR-145 may serve as a tumor suppressor which can downregulate E-cad expression by targeting MUC1, leading to the inhibition of tumor invasion and metastasis MiRNA-145 is downregulated in atypical and anaplastic meningiomas and negatively regulates the motility and proliferation of meningioma cells [120, 122]
 miR-335 miRNA miR-335 promotes cell proliferation by directly targeting Rb1 in meningiomas miR-335 promotes cell proliferation by directly targeting Rb1 in meningiomas [120, 123]
