Implications of LncRNAs and CircRNAs in psoriasis: a review.

ABSTRACT: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by skin infiltration of immune cells and abnormal epidermal thickening. The initial pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which include long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), comprise the majority of genome transcripts and are important influencers of gene transcription and post-transcription modulations. Emerging roles of ncRNAs in psoriasis were identified recently. This review summarizes the existing studies of psoriasis-related lncRNAs and circRNAs. A considerable proportion of the studied lncRNAs and circRNAs regulate keratinocyte mobility, such as keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. Some lncRNAs and circRNAs are tightly related to keratinocyte inflammation reactions
