Research progress of long non-coding RNA in eye diseases
Long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)is defined as untranslatable(non-coding)RNA that is over 200 nucleotides and is transcribed from the human genome. With the successful completion of the human genome sequencing and mapping, in subsequent ENCODE study, we found that about 75% of the genome sequence can be t...

| Summary: | Long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)is defined as untranslatable(non-coding)RNA that is over 200 nucleotides and is transcribed from the human genome. With the successful completion of the human genome sequencing and mapping, in subsequent ENCODE study, we found that about 75% of the genome sequence can be transcribed into RNA, and most of the transcripts are non-coding RNA. New research in recent years has found that lncRNA is involved in many important physiological and pathological processes in the body, such as cell development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, such as cell cycle regulation, cell metabolism, apoptosis, and reprogramming of induced peripheral stem cells. And epigenetic regulation and other biological functions, and differential expression play an important role in the occurrence of various human diseases, such as malignant tumors, inflammatory and immune diseases. Recent studies have shown that lncRNA is related to the pathogenesis of ophthalmic diseases. This article aims to review the latest progress between the abnormal expression of lncRNAs and eye diseases in recent years. |
