Long Noncoding RNA-GAS5

Circulating long noncoding RNA GAS5 levels are correlated to prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM), a metabolic disease, is characterized by impaired fasting glucose levels. Type 2 DM is adult onset diabetes. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate gene expression and multiple studies have linked lncRNAs to human diseases. METHODS Serum samples obtained from 96 participating veterans at JAH VA were deposited in the Research Biospecimen Repository. We used ...

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...
