Long non-coding RNA-H19 antagonism protects against renal fibrosis
Although long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important players in the initiation and progression of many pathological processes, the role of lncRNAs in renal fibrosis still remains unclear. We showed that lncRNA-H19 expression was significantly up-regulated in TGF-β2-induced HK-2 cell fibrosis and unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced renal fibrosis in vivo. H19 knockdown significantly a...
متن کاملMicroRNA-214 antagonism protects against renal fibrosis.
Renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis is the common end point of progressive renal disease. MicroRNA (miR)-214 and miR-21 are upregulated in models of renal injury, but the function of miR-214 in this setting and the effect of its manipulation remain unknown. We assessed the effect of inhibiting miR-214 in an animal model of renal fibrosis. In mice, genetic deletion of miR-214 significantly attenua...
متن کاملLong Non-coding RNA H19 Involvement in Cancer
The rapidly progressing area of long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) is a constantly expanding and widespread field in both biology and medicine. The fact that most of the human transcriptomes have relatively no coding capacity. The gene encodes a predominantly cytoplasmic spliced, ~2.3kb long capped, and polyadenylated RNA that produces an unknown protein product. It belongs to a vastly persistent and...
متن کاملSOX2OT, a long non-coding RNA involved in autophagy regulation
Summary: SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT) is a long non-coding RNA associated with cancer pathogenesis. It contributes to a variety of cellular functions and recent evidence propounds its association with autophagy process. It has been showed that SOX2OT can regulate the expression of different autophagy associated factors in human cells with different mechanisms, however more remains to ...
متن کاملCritical effects of long non-coding RNA on fibrosis diseases
The expression or dysfunction of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is closely related to various hereditary diseases, autoimmune diseases, metabolic diseases and tumors. LncRNAs were also recently recognized as functional regulators of fibrosis, which is a secondary process in many of these diseases and a primary pathology in fibrosis diseases. We review the latest findings on lncRNAs in fibrosis ...
