LncPCD: a manually curated database of experimentally supported associations between lncRNA-mediated programmed cell death and diseases.

ABSTRACT: Programmed cell death (PCD) refers to controlled cell death that is conducted to keep the internal environment stable. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) participate in the progression of PCD in a variety of diseases. However, no specialized online repository is available to collect and store the associations between lncRNA-mediated PCD and diseases. Here, we developed LncPCD, a comprehensive database that provides information on experimentally supported associations of lncRNA-mediated PCD with diseases. The current version of LncPCD documents 6666 associations between five common types of PCD (apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, necroptosis and pyroptosis) and 1222 lncRNAs in 331 diseases. We also manually curated a wealth of information: (1) 7 important lncRNA regulatory mechanisms, (2) 310 PC
