Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) are lesions that may precede the onset of cancers in the oral cavity, and oral submucosal fibrosis (OSF) is one of the OPMD that is usually found in the buccal mucosa. Considerable effort has been made to elucidate the pathogenesis of OSF, and emerging evidence has suggested that microRNAs may play significant roles in the development of OSF. Several studies demonstrated that aberrant expression of miRNAs is also observed in the fibrotic BMFs (fBMFs) derived from OSF tissues. For instance, it has been shown that miR-10b, miR-21, and miR-1246 are significantly elevated, and miR-29b, miR-200b, and miR-200c are reduced in fBMFs. This review systematically summarizes the current knowledge regarding the aberrant expression of microRNAs, molecular mechanisms underlying oral fibrogenesis by the dysregulated microRNAs, and how the interaction between microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs contributes to the progression of OSF. An overview of the modes of action by these microRNAs will provide a fundamental basis for clinical application. |
