Long Noncoding RNA: Recent Updates in Atherosclerosis

Study of Long Noncoding RNA FER1L4 and RB1, as Its Competing Endogenous RNA Network Target Gene, in Breast Cancer

Introduction: Breast cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related death among females, which requires an exploration for markers to propose a more specific categorization of this cancer. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), the main subset of noncoding transcripts, are involved in tumorigenic processes. In this study, we investigated the expression of the fer-­1–­like family member 4 (FER...

Association between Long Noncoding RNA ANRIL Expression Variants and Susceptibility to Coronary Artery Disease

Animal cells possess thousands of long non-coding (lnc) RNAs, such as antisense noncoding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) , which have regulatory roles in the cells’ molecular mechanisms, including X-chromosome inactivation, and developmental processes.  These lnc RNAs are known to influence the extensive spectrum of age-related disorders. Accordingly, there is evidence for the role of...

بررسی بیان RNA غیرکدکننده طویل HOTAIR در مبتلایان به لوسمی میلوئیدی مزمن

Background and Objective: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a new class of non-coding RNAs that are currently being studied extensively. LncRNAs have many biological roles in gene expression, cell development and diseases. Recent studies showed that lncRNAs have an important role in cancers, including hematopoietic disorders which can be a tool for easier diagnosis and prognosis of many disease...

Long noncoding RNA as a regulator for transcription.

Investigation of noncoding RNAs is in rapid progress, especially regarding translational repression by small (short) noncoding RNAs like microRNAs with 20-25 nucleotide-lengths, while long noncoding RNAs with nucleotide length of more than two hundred are also emerging. Indeed, our analysis has revealed that a long noncoding RNA transcribed from cyclin D1 promoter of 200 and 300 nucleotides exe...
