Abstract: A microRNA, abbreviated miRNA, is a non-coding single-stranded small molecular RNA. Through incomplete or complete complementary pairing with target mRNA 3' UTR (3' end untranslated region), it plays an important role in the occurrence and development of tumors. This paper reviews the role of miRNA in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of head and neck cancers.

Key words: Head and neck cancers, miRNA, Gene
