摘要
长链非编码RNA以RNA的形式在多个层面(表观遗传学、转录水平、转录后水平)上调控基因的表达,在个体发育及肿瘤的发生、发展过程中起着重要的作用。近来研究表明长链非编码RNA HOTAIR(lnc-HOTAIR)在多种肿瘤中表达上调,与肿瘤的发生、发展、转移和预后等密切相关,成为肿瘤研究的新热点。本文结合国内外最新报道,对lnc-HOTAIR在各种肿瘤中的研究进展作一综述。
Long non-coding RNAs regulate gene expression at the levels of epigenetic, transcriptional and post-transcriptional processing, playing an important role in individual development, tumorigenesis and progression. Recently, overexpression of long non- coding RNA HOTAIR(lnc-HOTAIR) has been found in various human cancers and accumulating evidences have showed the significant relationship between lnc-HOTAIR and tumorigenesis, development, metastasis and prognosis. In this review, we summarize the latest progresses, both domestic and overseas, on the research of lnc-HOTAIR in various human carcinomas.
