长链非编码RNAs在心肌纤维化中的研究进展

Advances of long noncoding RNAs in myocardial fibrosis

  • 摘要: 心肌纤维化是心脏疾病中普遍存在的一种病理变化。越来越多的研究表明,长链非编码RNAs(long noncoding RNAs,lncRNAs)在基因转录前后等多种途径参与心肌纤维化的发生与发展。本文综述了lncRNAs与DNA、RNA(miRNA、mRNA)和蛋白质之间的相互作用,总结了lncRNAs在心肌纤维化过程中对心脏细胞的形态结构、生化代谢、细胞外基质合成及降解的调节机制,并对lncRNAs作为生物标志物和治疗靶标的潜力进行了讨论。

     

    Abstract: Accumulating studies have recently shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the initiation and progression of myocardial fibrosis,a common histological characteristic of heart conditions and prominent global health issues. LncRNAs are prominently served as regulatory molecules via interaction with DNA,RNA and proteins in transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. They can change morphological structure and biochemical metabolism of cardiac cells and regulate homeostasis of the cardiac extracellular matrix. Therefore,lncRNAs show great potential as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for anti-fibrotic treatment.
