Abstract
RNA modifications are crucial post-transcriptional processes that significantly influence gene expression, RNA stability, nuclear transport, and translational capacity. Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is a physiological process that is dysregulated in many pathological conditions, including ocular diseases, immune disorders, and cancer. In this review, we compile the current understanding of the intricate relationship between various RNA modifications and angiogenic mechanisms, spotlighting emerging evidence that underscore their pivotal regulatory roles in both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Furthermore, we delve into recent advances in innovative therapeutic approaches that target RNA modifications to modulate angiogenesis, offering insights into their potential as novel treatment modalities.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Molecular Medicine (TMM) aims to offer concise and contextualized perspectives on the latest research advancing biomedical science toward better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human diseases. It focuses on research at the intersection of basic biology and clinical research, covering new concepts in human biology and pathology with clear implications for diagnostics and therapy. TMM reviews bridge the gap between bench and bedside, discussing research from preclinical studies to patient-enrolled trials. The major themes include disease mechanisms, tools and technologies, diagnostics, and therapeutics, with a preference for articles relevant to multiple themes. TMM serves as a platform for discussion, pushing traditional boundaries and fostering collaboration between scientists and clinicians. The journal seeks to publish provocative and authoritative articles that are also accessible to a broad audience, inspiring new directions in molecular medicine to enhance human health.
