MicroRNAs (miRNAs) belong to small noncoding RNAs, which have long attracted researchers' attention because of their potency in acting either as oncogenes or tumor-suppressors in cancers. acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are two known types of leukemia with high mortality rates in adults and children. On a molecular basis, various signaling pathways are active in both types, making researchers consider the potential role of miRNAs in activating or suppressing these pathways to further hinder cancer development. In this review, we summarized the potential miRNAs, especially circulating ones, involved in essential signaling pathways in the ALL and CLL patients which serve as biomarkers and valuable targets in the treatment fields.
