Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a persistently progressive, incurable, multifactorial associated fatal pulmonary vascular disease characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in regulating pathological processes such as pulmonary vasoconstriction, thickening, remodeling, and inflammatory cell infiltration in PH by acting on different cell types. Because of their differential expression in PH patients, as demonstrated by the observation that some lncRNAs are significantly upregulated while others are significantly downregulated in PH patients, lncRNAs are potentially useful biomarkers for assessing disease progression and diagnosis or prognosis in PH patients. This article provides an overview of the different mechanisms by which lncRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of PH.
期刊介绍:
RCM is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal. RCM publishes research articles, review papers and short communications on cardiovascular medicine as well as research on cardiovascular disease. We aim to provide a forum for publishing papers which explore the pathogenesis and promote the progression of cardiac and vascular diseases. We also seek to establish an interdisciplinary platform, focusing on translational issues, to facilitate the advancement of research, clinical treatment and diagnostic procedures. Heart surgery, cardiovascular imaging, risk factors and various clinical cardiac & vascular research will be considered.
