Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a clinical syndrome of metabolic disorder caused by progressive kidney impairment for more than 3 months. CKD has become a global public health problem due to its high morbidity and mortality, which is difficult to be cured for most patients. The pathogenesis of CKD is still unclear, which is closely related to glomerulosclerosis, kidney tubular injury and kidney fibrosis. LncRNA is a non-coding RNA with a length of more than 200 nucleotides. It not only participates in intracellular transcriptional regulation, post-transcriptional regulation and epigenetic activities, but also forms a regulatory network together with miRNA and mRNA, to further conduct the reticular regulation in cells. Recently, it has been found that lncRNA participates in pathophysiological mechanism of CKD by regulating glomerulosclerosis, kidney tubular injury and kidney fibrosis. This has also become a new direction of lncRNA in early diagnosis and targeted therapy of CKD.
期刊介绍:
Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics (CBB) aims to publish papers on the nature of the biochemical and biophysical mechanisms underlying the structure, control and function of cellular systems
The reports should be within the framework of modern biochemistry and chemistry, biophysics and cell physiology, physics and engineering, molecular and structural biology. The relationship between molecular structure and function under investigation is emphasized.
Examples of subject areas that CBB publishes are:
· biochemical and biophysical aspects of cell structure and function;
· interactions of cells and their molecular/macromolecular constituents;
· innovative developments in genetic and biomolecular engineering;
· computer-based analysis of tissues, cells, cell networks, organelles, and molecular/macromolecular assemblies;
· photometric, spectroscopic, microscopic, mechanical, and electrical methodologies/techniques in analytical cytology, cytometry and innovative instrument design
For articles that focus on computational aspects, authors should be clear about which docking and molecular dynamics algorithms or software packages are being used as well as details on the system parameterization, simulations conditions etc. In addition, docking calculations (virtual screening, QSAR, etc.) should be validated either by experimental studies or one or more reliable theoretical cross-validation methods.
