摘要
With the development of proteomics and epigenetics,a large number of RNA-binding proteins(RBPs)have been discovered in recent years,and the inter-action between long non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs)and RBPs has also received increasing attention.It is extremely important to conduct in-depth research on the lncRNA-RBP interaction network,especially in the context of its role in the occurrence and development of cancer.Increasing evidence has demonstrated that lncRNA-RBP interactions play a vital role in cancer progression;there-fore,targeting these interactions could provide new insights for cancer drug discovery.In this review,we discussed how lncRNAs can interact with RBPs to regulate their localization,modification,stability,and activity and discussed the effects of RBPs on the stability,transport,transcription,and localization of lncRNAs.Moreover,we explored the regulation and influence of these inter-actions on lncRNAs,RBPs,and downstream pathways that are related to can-cer development,such as N6-methyladenosine(m6A)modification of lncRNAs.In addition,we discussed how the lncRNA-RBP interaction network regulates cancer cell phenotypes,such as proliferation,apoptosis,metastasis,drug resis-tance,immunity,tumor environment,and metabolism.Furthermore,we sum-marized the therapeutic strategies that target the lncRNA-RBP interaction net-work.Although these treatments are still in the experimental stage and various theories and processes are still being studied,we believe that these strategiesmay provide new ideas for cancer treatment.
