Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract is chronically inflamed in ulcerative colitis (UC), which has a complicated etiology involving immunological, environmental, and genetic factors. The inflammatory response that is typical of UC is significantly regulated via the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Latest research has displayed that NF-κB signaling is controlled by three main types of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs): circular RNAs (circRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs). These ncRNAs can change the expression of key genes within the NF-κB pathway by acting as molecular sponges, transcriptional regulators, and epigenetic modifiers. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the functions by which ncRNAs modulate NF-κB signaling in UC, discusses their potential as biomarkers for disease prognosis and diagnosis, and explores their therapeutic potential. Understanding the intricate interactions between ncRNAs and NF-κB signaling may provide novel insights into UC pathogenesis and targeted therapeutic strategies.
