lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs02:39

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

9.9K
In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

Nursing Code of Ethics

4.5K
The Nursing Code of Ethics sets the ethical benchmark for the profession, and guides nurses in ethical analysis and decision making at the societal, organizational, and clinical levels. The code encompasses showing compassion and respect for the patient, their families, and communities in all circumstances while committing to providing patient-centered care. In addition, the code states that nurses must advocate for the patient by defending a cause or recommendation to protect their rights,...

piRNA - Piwi-interacting RNAs

7.7K
PIWI-interacting RNAs, or piRNAs, are the most abundant short non-coding RNAs. More than 20,000 genes have been found in humans that code for piRNAs while only 2000 genes have been found for miRNAs. piRNAs can act at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels and have a vital role in silencing transposable elements present in germ cells. They are also involved in epigenetic silencing and activation. Previously, they were thought to function only in germ cells but new evidence suggests...

Cis-regulatory Sequences02:02

Cis-regulatory Sequences

11.8K
Cis-regulatory sequences are short fragments of non-coding DNA that are present on the same chromosomes as the genes that they regulate. These fragments serve as binding sites for transcriptional regulators, proteins that are responsible for controlling gene transcription and differential gene expression across cell types in eukaryotes. Cis-regulatory sequences can be close to the gene of interest or thousands of bases away in the DNA sequence; however, those sequences that are further away are...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics
  • Biochemistry

Background:

  • Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease causing decreased bone mass and microstructural degradation, leading to increased fracture risk.
  • The precise molecular mechanisms driving osteoporosis pathogenesis remain incompletely understood.
  • Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as critical epigenetic regulators influencing gene expression and diverse biological functions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current research on the role of lncRNAs in bone remodeling.
  • To elucidate how lncRNAs influence osteoblast and osteoclast activity.
  • To highlight the potential of lncRNAs as therapeutic targets for osteoporosis.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent studies on lncRNAs and bone biology.
  • Analysis of lncRNA involvement in osteoblast differentiation and function.
  • Examination of lncRNA regulation of osteoclastogenesis.

Main Results:

  • lncRNAs play significant roles in regulating bone remodeling processes.
  • Specific lncRNAs have been identified that modulate osteoblast and osteoclast functions.
  • Dysregulation of lncRNAs is implicated in the development of osteoporosis.

Conclusions:

  • lncRNAs are crucial epigenetic modulators in bone biology.
  • Further understanding of lncRNA functions can illuminate osteoporosis mechanisms.
  • lncRNAs represent promising targets for future osteoporosis treatments.
