Glioma is a significant healthcare burden; nevertheless, the particular genetic regulatory mechanism underpinning its onset and progression is still unknown. Recent research has focused in large part on trying to determine the underlying molecular pathways that contribute to the malignancy of this disease because of the difficulties in treating it. Many tumors have been linked to changes in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs). miRNAs play a critical role in cancer development by controlling a wide variety of targets and signaling cascades. A rising body of evidence emphasizes WNT pathway dysregulation in glioma, despite the fact that it is dysregulated in many malignancies. Here, we give a detailed analysis of the roles played by miRNAs in the WNT pathway by glioma. We also demonstrate how the WNT pathway cooperates with miRNAs to control a variety of functions, including cell proliferation, invasion, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
