Stem cells and regenerative medicine have recently become important research topics. However, the complex stem cell regulatory networks involved in various microRNA (miRNA)-mediated mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. Planarians are ideal animal models for studying stem cells owing to their rich stem cell populations (neoblasts) and extremely strong regeneration capacity. The roles of planarian miRNAs in stem cells and regeneration have long attracted attention. However, previous studies have generally provided simple datasets lacking integrative analysis. Here, we have summarized the miRNA family reported in planarians and highlighted conservation in both sequence and function. Furthermore, we summarized miRNA data related to planarian stem cells and regeneration and screened potential involved candidates. Nevertheless, the roles of these miRNAs in planarian regeneration and stem cells remain unclear. The identification of potential stem cell-related miRNAs offers more precise suggestions and references for future investigations of miRNAs in planarians. Furthermore, it provides potential research avenues for understanding the mechanisms of stem cell regulatory networks. Finally, we compiled a summary of the experimental methods employed for studying planarian miRNAs, with the aim of highlighting special considerations in certain procedures and providing more convenient technical support for future research endeavors.
