Abstract:
Liver cancer is a common tumor of digestive system. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common type of liver cancer, which has a high degree of malignancy and ranks among the top causes of cancer-related death in the world. Metabolic reprogramming is considered to be an important marker of carcinogenesis. Glucose metabolism is one of the main ways for cells to produce energy. Glycolysis, as the basic reaction of glucose metabolism, plays an important role in cell metabolism. Therefore, the regulation of glycolysis is of great significance to the proliferation and evolution of tumors. More and more non-coding RNAs (ncRNA) have been proved to play an important role in the regulation of tumor glycolysis. This article reviews the role of ncRNA in the regulation of HCC glycolysis and its related mechanisms. At the same time, the prospect of targeted therapy for HCC based on the related mechanisms of glycolysis regulation is put forward.

Types of RNA
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.

What is Glycolysis?
Cells make energy by breaking down macromolecules. Cellular respiration is the biochemical process that converts "food energy" (from the chemical bonds of macromolecules) into chemical energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The first step of this tightly regulated and intricate process is glycolysis. The word glycolysis originates from the Latin glyco (sugar) and lysis (breakdown). Glycolysis serves two main intracellular functions: generating ATP and generating...
