Circular RNA (circRNAs) belong to the long non-coding RNA family, but unlike the linear RNA in circular RNA, the 3’ and 5’ end in the RNA molecule are joined together, forming their circular structure. Until recently, circRNAs have been believed to be a side product of splicing, but now it is known that they have a wide range of biological functions, from regulators of gene expression to regulators of other non-coding RNAs - microRNAs (miRNAs). CircRNAs have the potential of being therapeutic targets and biomarkers for diseases. There are little data and only several investigations about this type of RNAs in myocardial infarction in humans. This review summarizes the role of some new circRNA – miRNA interactions in the development of Myocardial Infarction.

Myocardial infarction (MI), one of the cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) with high incidence and mortality rate, seriously endangers human health. The poor ways of fully repairing and regenerating the infarcted myocardium may have an impact on people's life quality, therefore scientists have devoted continuously to exploring the way of myocardial repair after MI so as to strive for a better prognosis of these patients. In recent years, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been identified and become one of the exciting fields of research in the development of CVDs. In a wide range of areas, more and more research has found that ncRNAs play important roles in myocardial repair. This review mainly introduces some strategies for myocardial repair and the role or mechanism of microRNA (miRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA) and circRNA/lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory axis in the repair of myocardial tissue after MI, in order to build a better understanding and find new therapeutic targets for MI.

Insight Into

Alzheimer's disease (AD), a heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder, is the most common cause of dementia accounting for an estimated 60–80% of cases. The pathogenesis of AD remains unclear, and no curative treatment is available so far. Increasing evidence has revealed a vital role of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), especially long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), in AD. LncRNAs contribute to the pathogenesis of AD via modulating amyloid production, Tau hyperphosphorylation, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, synaptic impairment and neuroinflammation. This review describes the biological functions and mechanisms of lncRNAs in AD, indicating that lncRNAs may provide potential therapeutic targets for the diagnosis and treatment of AD.

Myocardial infarction is one of the major causes of mortality worldwide and is a main cause of heart failure. This disease appears as a final point of atherosclerotic plaque progression, destabilization, and rupture. As a consequence of cardiomyocytes death during the infarction, the heart undergoes unfavorable cardiac remodeling, which results in its failure. Therefore, therapies aimed to limit the processes of atherosclerotic plaque progression, cardiac damage during the infarction, and subsequent remodeling are urgently warranted. A hopeful therapeutic option for the future medicine is targeting and regulating non-coding RNA (ncRNA), like microRNA, circular RNA (circRNA), or long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). In this review, the approaches targeted at ncRNAs participating in the aforementioned pathophysiological processes involved in myocardial infarction and their outcomes in preclinical studies have been concisely presented.

Abstract The discovery of small non-coding RNAs, such as miRNA and piRNA, has dramatically changed our understanding of the role RNA plays in organisms. Recent studies show that a novel small non-coding RNA generated from cleavage of tRNA or pre-tRNA, called tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), serves as a new regulator of gene expression. tsRNA has been determined participate in regulating some specific physiological and pathological processes. Although knowledge regarding the biological roles of miRNA and piRNA is expanding, whether tsRNAs play similar roles remains poorly understood. Here, we review the current knowledge regarding the mechanisms of action and biological functions of tsRNAs in intracellular, extracellular and intergenerational inheritance, and highlight the potential application of tsRNAs in human diseases, and present the current problems and future research directions.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a prevalent diabetes mellitus (Feldman et al., 2017) complication and the primary reason for amputation. Meanwhile, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a type of regulatory non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that broadly participate in DPN development. However, the correlation of lncRNA X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) with DPN remains unclear. In this study, we were interested in the role of XIST in the modulation of DPN progression. Significantly, our data showed that the expression of XIST and sirtuin1 (SIRT1) was inhibited, and the expression of microRNA-30d-5p (miR-30d-5p) was enhanced in the trigeminal sensory neurons of the diabetic mice compared with the normal mice. The levels of LC3II and Beclin-1 were inhibited in the diabetic mice. The treatment of high glucose (HG) reduced the XIST expression in Schwann cells. The apoptosis of Schwann cells was enhanced in the HG-treated cells, but the overexpression of XIST could block the effect in the cells. Moreover, the levels of LC3II and Beclin-1 were reduced in the HG-treated Schwann cells, while the overexpression of XIST was able to reverse this effect. The HG treatment promoted the production of oxidative stress, while the XIST overexpression could attenuate this result in the Schwann cells. Mechanically, XIST was able to sponge miR-30d-5p and miR-30d-5p-targeted SIRT1 in the Schwann cells. MiR-30d-5p inhibited autophagy and promoted oxidative stress in the HG-treated Schwann cells, and SIRT1 presented a reversed effect. MiR-30d-5p mimic or SIRT1 depletion could reverse XIST overexpression-mediated apoptosis and autophagy of the Schwann cells. Thus, we concluded that XIST attenuated DPN by inducing autophagy through miR-30d-5p/SIRT1 axis. XIST and miR-30d-5p may be applied as the potential targets for DPN therapy.

Abstract Breast cancer (BC) poses a great threaten to women health. Numerous evidences suggest the important role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in BC development. In the present study, we intended to investigate the role of ARAP1-AS1 in BC progression. First of all, the GEPIA data suggested that ARAP1-AS1 was highly expressed in breast invasive carcinoma (BRAC) tissues compared with the normal breast tissues. Meanwhile, the expression of ARAP1-AS1 was greatly up-regulated in BC cell lines. ARAP1-AS1 knockdown led to repressed proliferation, strengthened apoptosis and blocked migration of BC cells. Moreover, ARAP1-AS1 could boost HDAC2 expression in BC through sponging miR-2110 via a ceRNA mechanism. Of note, the UCSC predicted that HDAC2 was a potential transcriptional regulator of PLIN1, an identified tumor suppressor in BC progression. Moreover, we explained that the repression of HDAC2 on PLIN1 was owing to its deacetylation on PLIN1 promoter. More importantly, depletion of PLIN1 attenuated the mitigation function of ARAP1-AS1 silence on the malignant phenotypes of BC cells. To sum up, ARAP1-AS1 serves a tumor-promoter in BC development through modulating miR-2110/HDAC2/PLIN1 axis, which may help to develop novel effective targets for BC treatment.

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is an incurable paediatric malignancy. Identifying the molecular drivers of DIPG progression is of the utmost importance. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a large family of disease- and tissue-specific transcripts, whose functions have not yet been elucidated in DIPG. Herein, we studied the oncogenic role of the development-associated H19 lncRNA in DIPG. Bioinformatic analyses of clinical datasets were used to measure the expression of H19 lncRNA in paediatric high-grade gliomas (pedHGGs). The expression and sub-cellular location of H19 lncRNA were validated in DIPG cell lines. Locked nucleic acid antisense oligonucleotides were designed to test the function of H19 in DIPG cells. We found that H19 expression was higher in DIPG vs. normal brain tissue and other pedHGGs. H19 knockdown resulted in decreased cell proliferation and survival in DIPG cells. Mechanistically, H19 buffers let-7 microRNAs, resulting in the up-regulation of oncogenic let-7 target (e.g., SULF2 and OSMR). H19 is the first functionally characterized lncRNA in DIPG and a promising therapeutic candidate for treating this incurable cancer.

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) research in plants has recently gained momentum taking cues from studies in animals systems. The availability of next-generation sequencing has enabled genome-wide identification of lncRNA in several plant species. Some lncRNAs are inhibitors of microRNA expression and have a function known as target mimicry with the sequestered transcript known as an endogenous target mimic (eTM). The lncRNAs identified to date show diverse mechanisms of gene regulation, most of which remain poorly understood. In this review, we discuss the role of identified putative lncRNAs that may act as eTMs for nutrient-responsive microRNAs (miRNAs) in plants. If functionally validated, these putative lncRNAs would enhance current understanding of the role of lncRNAs in nutrient homeostasis in plants.

Abstract BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been found to regulate innumerable diseases, yet the role of lncRNA MEG3 in osteoporosis (OP) has rarely been discussed. Here, we intend to probe into the mechanism of MEG3 on OP development by modulating microRNA-214 (miR-214) and thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP)MethodsRat models of OP were established. MEG3, miR-214, and TXNIP mRNA expression in rat femoral tissues was detected, along with TXNIP, PCNA, cyclin D1, OCN, RUNX2, Osteolix, OPG, and PANKL protein expression. Ca, P and ALP contents in rat blood samples were also determined. Primary osteoblasts were isolated and cultured. Viability, COL-I, COL-II and COL-Χ contents, ALP content and activity, and mineralized nodule area of rat osteoblasts in each group were further detected.ResultsMEG3 and TXNIP were overexpressed while miR-214 was underexpressed in femoral tissues of OP rats. MEG3 silencing and miR-214 overexpression increased BMD, BV/TV, Tb.N, Tb.Th, the number of osteoblasts, collagen area and OPG expression, and downregulated PANKL of femoral tissues in OP rats. MEG3 silencing and miR-214 overexpression elevated Ca and P contents and reduced ALP content in OP rats’ blood, elevated viability, differentiation ability, COL-I and COL-Χ contents and ALP activity, and abated COL-II content of osteoblasts. MEG3 specifically bound to miR-214 to regulate TXNIP.ConclusionCollectively, we demonstrated that MEG3 silencing and miR-214 overexpression promote proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts in OP by downregulating TXNIP, which further improves OP.

In the past two decades, our knowledge about non-coding DNA has increased tremendously. While non-coding DNA was initially discarded as ‘junk DNA’, we are now aware of the important and often crucial roles of RNA transcripts that do not translate into protein. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play important functions in normal cellular homeostasis and also in many diseases across all organ systems. Among the different ncRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been studied the most. In this chapter we discuss the role of miRNAs and lncRNAs in cardiac disease. We present examples of miRNAs with fundamental roles in cardiac development (miR-1), hypertrophy (myomiRs, miR-199, miR-1/133), fibrosis (miR-29, miR-21), myocardial infarction (miR-15, miR17~92), and arrhythmias/conduction (miR-1). We provide examples of lncRNAs related to cardiac hypertrophy (MHRT, CHRF), myocardial infarction (ANRIL, MIAT), and arrhythmias (KCNQ1OT1). We also discuss miRNAs and lncRNAs as potential therapeutic targets or biomarkers in cardiac disease.
