The lncRNA epigenetics: The significance of m6A and m5C lncRNA modifications in cancer
Most of our transcribed RNAs are represented by non-coding sequences. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts with no or very limited protein coding ability and a length >200nt. They can be epigenetically modified. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N1-methyladenosine (m1A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), 7-methylguanosine (m7G) and 2’-O-methylation (Nm)

LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

New Insights into the Roles of Yes-Associated Protein (YAP1) in Colorectal Cancer Development and Progression [PDF]
Yes-associated protein (YAP1), the downstream effector of the Hippo pathway, plays important roles in the regulation of tissue reconstruction,stem cell proliferation, and development of different cancers.

LncRNAs in ocular neovascularizations
The prevalence of eye diseases worldwide is dramatically increasing and represents a major concern in underdeveloped and developed regions. Ocular diseases, previously associated with a higher depression risk, also impose a substantial economic burden on affected families, thus early detection and/or accurate treatment in order to avoid and prevent ...

Targeting long non-coding RNAs as new modulators in anti-EGFR resistance mechanisms [PDF]
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a cell surface protein that plays a vital role in regulating cell growth and division. However, certain tumors, such as colorectal cancer (CRC), can exhibit an overexpression of EGFR, resulting in uncontrolled ...

Unraveling the epigenetic code in cancer cell–tumor microenvironment crosstalk
Epigenetic regulation is a key driver of cancer development and progression. Diverse epigenetic alterations in cancer cells and components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) orchestrate their communication through multiple mechanisms. We discuss how the epigenetic code coordinates bidirectional cancer cell–TME crosstalk to promote cancer progression ...

Small RNA pathways in mammalian oocytes
Three distinct small RNA pathways operate in mammalian oocytes: RNAi interference (RNAi), the microRNA (miRNA) pathway, and the PIWI‐associated RNA (piRNA) pathway. These pathways use small RNAs to guide sequence‐specific repression and contribute to oocyte biology by targeting genes and mobile elements or appear insignificant since different ...

Los ARNs no codificantes largos y su vinculación con las patologías testiculares
Si bien la porción del genoma destinada a la síntesis de proteínas es muy pequeña, actualmente se sabe que casi todo el genoma se expresa bajo forma de ARNs no codificantes.

Autophagy is a cellular process that involves the degradation and recycling of cellular components, including damaged proteins and organelles. It is an important mechanism for maintaining cellular homeostasis and has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer.
