Circulating miRNAs (C-miRNAs) occuring in a cell-free form within body fluids and other extracellular environments have garnered attention in recent times. They offer deeper insight into various physiological and pathological processes which include reproductive health. This review delves into their diagnostic potential across a spectrum of reproductive disorders, including conditions affecting ovarian function, male infertility and post pregnancy issues. Through analysis of C-miRNA profiles in bodily fluids, researchers uncover crucial markers indicative of reproductive challenges. Dysregulated C-miRNAs emerge as important players in the progression of several reproductive disorders which is the main focus of this review. Advancements in technology, facilitate precise detection and quantification of C-miRNAs, paving the way for innovative diagnostic approaches. Challenges in studying C-miRNAs, such as their low abundance and variability in expression levels, underscore the need for standardized protocols and rigorous validation methods. Despite these challenges, ongoing research endeavors aim to unravel the complex regulatory roles of C-miRNAs in reproductive biology, with potential implications for clinical practice and therapeutic interventions.
循环miRNA(C-miRNA)以无细胞形式存在于体液和其他细胞外环境中,近年来受到了关注。它们为包括生殖健康在内的各种生理和病理过程提供了更深入的见解。本综述深入探讨了它们在一系列生殖疾病中的诊断潜力,包括影响卵巢功能、男性不育和产后问题的疾病。通过分析体液中的C-miRNA谱,研究人员发现了指示生殖挑战的关键标志物。失调的C-miRNA成为几种生殖疾病进展中的重要因素,这是本综述的主要重点。技术的进步促进了C-miRNA的精确检测和定量,为创新的诊断方法铺平了道路。研究C-miRNA的挑战,如它们的低丰度和表达水平的变异性,强调了标准化方案和严格验证方法的必要性。尽管存在这些挑战,但正在进行的研究努力旨在揭示C-miRNA在生殖生物学中的复杂调节作用,这对临床实践和治疗干预可能具有重要意义。
