Unveiling the role of microRNAs, the PI3K/AKT pathway, and their associations in various types of leukemia: a comprehensive review.
Review in Blood research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) pathway and microRNA (miRNA) regulation have been implicated in the initiation and progression of acute leukemia. Despite significant progress in the understanding of leukemogenic mechanisms, current therapies remain limited by relapse, drug resistance, and poor long-term survival, underscoring the need for novel targeted strategies. This review provides the current evidence regarding the molecular interplay between PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling and miRNA dysregulation in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We highlight key oncogenic and tumor-suppressive miRNAs, discuss their regulatory impact on critical genes (PIK3CA, AKT1, PTEN, and FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 [FLT3]), and evaluate therapeutic approaches, including PI3K/AKT inhibitors and miRNA-based interventions. Furthermore, we identified existing controversies, methodological limitations, and unresolved research gaps. Finally, we emphasize the translational potential of miRNA-targeted therapies and pathway-specific inhibitors, providing insights into their integration into personalized treatment strategies for acute leukemia.
