The significance of long non-coding RNAs in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

ABSTRACT: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are a group of chronic relapsing gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases with significant global incidence. Although the pathomechanism of IBD has been extensively investigated, several aspects of its pathogenesis remain unclear. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts with more than 200 nucleotides in length that have potential protein-coding functions. LncRNAs play important roles in biological processes such as epigenetic modification, transcriptional regulation and post-transcriptional regulation. In this review, we summarize recent advances in research on IBD-related lncRNAs from the perspective of the overall intestinal microenvironment, as well as their potential roles as immune regulators, diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets or agents for IBD.

Project description:Heart failure, coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction are the most prominent cardiovascular diseases contributing significantly to death worldwide. In the majority of situations, except for surgical interventions and transplantation, there are no reliable therapeutic approaches available to address these health problem. Despite several advances that led to the development of biomarkers and therapies based on the renin-angiotensin system, adrenergic pathways, etc, more definitive and consistent biomarkers and specific target based molecular therapies are still being sought. Recent advances in the field of genomic research has helped in identifying non-coding RNAs, including circular RNAs, piRNAs, micro RNAs, and long non-coding RNAs, that play a significant role in the regulation of gene expression and function and have direct impact on pathophysiological mechanisms. This new knowledge is currently being explored with much hope for the development of novel treatments and biomarkers. Circular RNAs and micro RNAs have been described in myocardium and aortic valves and were shown to be involved in the regulation of pathophysiological processes that potentially contribute to cardiovascular diseases. Approximately 32?000 human exonic circular RNAs have been catalogued and their functions are still being ascertained. In the heart, circular RNAs were shown to bind micro RNAs in a specific manner and regulate the expression of transcription factors and stress response genes, and expression of these non-coding RNAs were found to change in conditions such as cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure and cardiac remodelling, reflecting their significance as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. In this review, we address the present state of understanding on the biogenesis, regulation and pathophysiological roles of micro and circular RNAs in cardiovascular diseases, and on the potential future perspectives on their use as biomarkers and therapeutic agents.
