Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are a group of chronic relapsing gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases with significant global incidence. Although the pathomechanism of IBD has been extensively investigated, several aspects of its pathogenesis remain unclear. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts with more than 200 nucleotides in length that have potential protein-coding functions. LncRNAs play important roles in biological processes such as epigenetic modification, transcriptional regulation and post-transcriptional regulation. In this review, we summarize recent advances in research on IBD-related lncRNAs from the perspective of the overall intestinal microenvironment, as well as their potential roles as immune regulators, diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets or agents for IBD.
期刊介绍:
Precision Clinical Medicine (PCM) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that provides timely publication of original research articles, case reports, reviews, editorials, and perspectives across the spectrum of precision medicine. The journal's mission is to deliver new theories, methods, and evidence that enhance disease diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and prognosis, thereby establishing a vital communication platform for clinicians and researchers that has the potential to transform medical practice. PCM encompasses all facets of precision medicine, which involves personalized approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, tailored to individual patients or patient subgroups based on their unique genetic, phenotypic, or psychosocial profiles. The clinical conditions addressed by the journal include a wide range of areas such as cancer, infectious diseases, inherited diseases, complex diseases, and rare diseases.
