Despite their simple structure, the Notch family of receptors regulates a wide-spectrum of key cellular processes including development, tissue patterning, cell-fate determination, proliferation, differentiation and, cell death. On the other hand, accumulating date pinpointed the role of non-coding microRNAs, namely miRNAs in cancer initiation/progression via regulating the expression of multiple oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, as such the Notch signaling. It is now documented that these two partners are in one or in the opposite directions and rule together the cancer fate. Here, we review the current knowledge relevant to this tricky interplay between different miRNAs and components of Notch signaling pathway. Further, we discuss the implication of this crosstalk in cancer progression/regression in the context of cancer stem cells, tumor angiogenesis, metastasis and emergence of multi-drug resistance. Understanding the molecular cues and mechanisms that occur at the interface of miRNA and Notch signaling would open new avenues for development of novel and effective strategies for cancer therapy.
