Long noncoding RNAs in digestive system cancers: Functional roles, molecular mechanisms, and clinical implications (Review)

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as new players in various diseases including cancer. LncRNAs have been shown to play multifaceted roles in the development, progression, and metastasis of cancer. In this review, we highlight the lncRNAs that are critically involved in the pathogenesis of d...

Popis
Shrnutí:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as new players in various diseases including cancer. LncRNAs have been shown to play multifaceted roles in the development, progression, and metastasis of cancer. In this review, we highlight the lncRNAs that are critically involved in the pathogenesis of digestive system cancers (DSCs). We summarize the roles of the lncRNAs in DSCs and the underlying mechanisms responsible for their functions. The DSC-associated lncRNAs interact with a wide spectrum of molecules to regulate gene expression at transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and translational levels. We also provide new insights into the clinical significance of these lncRNAs, which are found to be closely associated with the aggressiveness of DSCs and could predict the prognosis of DSC patients. Moreover, lncRNAs have been suggested as promising therapeutic targets in DSCs. Therefore, better understanding of the functional roles of lncRNAs will provide new biomarkers for DSC diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy.
