Non-Coding RNAs as Potential Neuroprotectants against Ischemic Brain Injury
Over the past decade, scientific discoveries have highlighted new roles for a unique class of non-coding RNAs. Transcribed from the genome, these non-coding RNAs have been implicated in determining the biological complexity seen in mammals by acting as transcriptional and translational regulators. Non-coding RNAs, which can be sub-classified into long non-coding RNAs, microRNAs, PIWI-interactin...
متن کاملThe Role of Long Non-Coding RNAs in Ovarian Cancer
Background: Ovarian cancer is the most fatal tumor of female's reproductive system, and several genetics and environmental factors are involved in its development. Various studies have already identified suitable biomarkers to facilitate the early detection, prognosis evaluation, and the assessment of treatment response. However, the aim of this review was to investigate the role of long non-co...
متن کاملNon-coding RNAs in cancer brain metastasis.
More than 90% of cancer death is attributed to metastatic disease, and the brain is one of the major metastatic sites of melanoma, colon, renal, lung and breast cancers. Despite the recent advancement of targeted therapy for cancer, the incidence of brain metastasis is increasing. One reason is that most therapeutic drugs can't penetrate blood-brain-barrier and tumor cells find the brain as san...
متن کاملSmall non-coding RNAs as magic bullets.
RNA interference (RNAi) - inhibition of gene expression by small, non-coding RNAs [small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) or microRNAs (miRNAs)] - has changed our view of regulation of expression dramatically. The application of siRNAs for both functional analysis of genes and medication raises several questions. These include the design of the double-stranded oligonucleotides, their preparation and i...
متن کاملNon-coding RNAs as antibiotic targets.
Antibiotics inhibit a wide range of essential processes in the bacterial cell, including replication, transcription, translation and cell wall synthesis. In many instances, these antibiotics exert their effects through association with non-coding RNAs. This review highlights many classical antibiotic targets (e.g. rRNAs and the ribosome), explores a number of emerging targets (e.g. tRNAs, RNase...
