Non-Coding RNA, Volume 5, Issue 3

2019 September - 5 articles

Cover Story: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as fundamental players in gene regulation determining the outcomes of a plethora of cellular functions. Recent studies have identified a number of lncRNAs as critical regulators of T helper cell differentiation, activation, and function. As RNA targeting therapeutics are rapidly gaining attention, further characterising the mechanistic role of lncRNAs in CD4+ T cells is an exciting challenge which may unearth a wide range of novel candidate therapeutic targets for treatment of infectious diseases and chronic immunopathologies.

Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) and follicular lymphoma (FL) are the most common B-cell lymphomas (BCL) in dogs. Recent investigations have demonstrated overlaps of these histotypes with the human count...

A growing number of recent studies have revealed that non-coding RNAs play a wide variety of roles beyond expectation. A lot of non-coding RNAs have been shown to function by forming intracellular structures either in the nucleus or the cytoplasm. In...

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) genes encode non-messenger RNAs that lack open reading frames (ORFs) longer than 300 nucleotides, lack evolutionary conservation in their shorter ORFs, and do not belong to any classical non-coding RNA category. LncRNA ge...

The CDKN2B-AS1 gene, also called ANRIL, is located at the human CDKN2A/B locus at 9p21.3 and transcribed by RNA polymerase II into a long non-coding RNA of 3834 bp. The CDKN2B-AS1 gene overlaps a critical region of 125 kb covering the CDKN2B gene. Th...

The non-coding genome has previously been regarded as “junk” DNA; however, emerging evidence suggests that the non-coding genome accounts for some of the greater biological complexity observed in mammals. Research into long non-coding RNA...
