Abstract:
Coronary artery disease (CAD), caused by coronary artery occlusion, is a common cardiovascular disease worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in the regulation of endothelial cell injury, angiogenesis, plaque formation, and other pathological mechanisms in CAD by acting on different cell types. Some lncRNAs are significantly upregulated in CAD patients; however, other lncRNAs are significantly downregulated. Differential expression of lncRNAs in CAD patients enables them to be exploited as potential biomarkers to evaluate disease progression and diagnosis/prognosis in CAD patients. In this study, we reviewed the role of lncRNAs in the development of different clinical subtypes of CAD.
