RUNX proteins have been shown to behave as “double-edge sword” in wide variety of cancers. Discovery of non-coding RNAs has played linchpin role in improving our understanding about the post-transcriptional regulation of different cell signaling pathways. Several new mechanistic insights and distinct modes of cross-regulation of RUNX proteins and non-coding RNAs have been highlighted by recent research. In this review we have attempted to provide an intricate interplay between non-coding RNAs and RUNX proteins in different cancers. Better conceptual and mechanistic understanding of layered regulation of RUNX proteins by non-coding RNAs will be helpful in effective translation of the laboratory findings to clinically effective therapeutics.
