Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcribed RNA molecules longer than 200 nucleotides in length that have no protein-coding potential. They are able to react with DNA, RNA, and protein. Hence they involve in regulating gene expression at the epigenetic, transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and translational levels. LncRNAs have been proven to play an important role in human malignancies and prognostic outcomes. In this review, we will comprehensively and functionally discuss the role of a novel identified lncRNA, namely lncRNA WAPPH located on human chromosome 2q13, in various cancers. Increasing research studies have shown that lncRNA AWPPH is deregulated in different malignancies, including breast cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, bladder cancer, leukemia, and others. LncRNA WAPPH serves as an oncogene in tumorigenesis and the development of cancer. Moreover, lncRNA AWPPH is involved in numerous biological processes of solid and blood cancers. Taken together, based on our scrutiny analysis, lncRNA AWPPH can be regarded as a putative biomarker for diagnosis or therapeutic target in human malignancies.
期刊介绍：
Current Molecular Medicine is an interdisciplinary journal focused on providing the readership with current and comprehensive reviews/ mini-reviews, original research articles, short communications/letters and drug clinical trial studies on fundamental molecular mechanisms of disease pathogenesis, the development of molecular-diagnosis and/or novel approaches to rational treatment. The reviews should be of significant interest to basic researchers and clinical investigators in molecular medicine. Periodically the journal invites guest editors to devote an issue on a basic research area that shows promise to advance our understanding of the molecular mechanism(s) of a disease or has potential for clinical applications.
