Abstract
In recent times, the rising prevalence of obesity and its associated comorbidities have had a severe impact on human health and social progress. Therefore, scientists are delving deeper into the pathogenesis of obesity, exploring the role of non-coding RNAs. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), once regarded as mere "noise" during genome transcription, have now been confirmed through numerous studies to regulate gene expression and contribute to the occurrence and progression of several human diseases. LncRNAs can interact with protein, DNA, and RNA, respectively, and participate in regulating gene expression by modulating the levels of visible modification, transcription, post-transcription, and biological environment. Increasingly, researchers have established the involvement of lncRNAs in regulating adipogenesis, development, and energy metabolism of adipose tissue (white and brown fat). In this article, we present a literature review of the role of lncRNAs in the development of adipose cells.

Identification of Hypothalamic Long Noncoding RNAs Associated with Hypertension and the Behavior/Neurological Phenotype of Hypertensive ISIAH Rats. Genes (Basel) 2022; 13:genes13091598. [PMID: 36140769 PMCID: PMC9498762 DOI: 10.3390/genes13091598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in the control of many physiological and pathophysiological processes, including the development of hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases. Nonetheless, the understanding of the regulatory function of many lncRNAs is still incomplete. This work is a continuation of our earlier study on the sequencing of hypothalamic transcriptomes of hypertensive ISIAH rats and control normotensive WAG rats. It aims to identify lncRNAs that may be involved in the formation of the hypertensive state and the associated behavioral features of ISIAH rats. Interstrain differences in the expression of seven lncRNAs were validated by quantitative PCR. Differential hypothalamic expression of lncRNAs LOC100910237 and RGD1562890 between hypertensive and normotensive rats was shown for the first time. Expression of four lncRNAs (Snhg4, LOC100910237, RGD1562890, and Tnxa-ps1) correlated with transcription levels of many hypothalamic genes differentially expressed between ISIAH and WAG rats (DEGs), including genes associated with the behavior/neurological phenotype and hypertension. After functional annotation of these DEGs, it was concluded that lncRNAs Snhg4, LOC100910237, RGD1562890, and Tnxa-ps1 may be involved in the hypothalamic processes related to immune-system functioning and in the response to various exogenous and endogenous factors, including hormonal stimuli. Based on the functional enrichment analysis of the networks, an association of lncRNAs LOC100910237 and Tnxa-ps1 with retinol metabolism and an association of lncRNAs RGD1562890 and Tnxa-ps1 with type 1 diabetes mellitus are proposed for the first time. Based on a discussion, it is hypothesized that previously functionally uncharacterized lncRNA LOC100910237 is implicated in the regulation of hypothalamic processes associated with dopaminergic synaptic signaling, which may contribute to the formation of the behavioral/neurological phenotype and hypertensive state of ISIAH rats.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes damage to major organs, including the heart, liver, brain, kidneys, eyes, and blood vessels, threatening the health of the individuals. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that lncRNAs has important functions in the pathogenesis of human diseases, such as cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiac fibroblast phenotypes, hypertension, heart failure, atherosclerosis and diabetes. Recently, H19, a lncRNA, has been reported to shown to participate in the regulatory process of muscle differentiation, glucose metabolism, and tumor metastasis, as well as endometrial development. However, the roles of H19 in DM were still not completely understood. This review was conducted to summarize the functions of H19 in diabetes and discuss the challenges and possible strategies of H19 in DM.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) rank as the first leading cause of death globally. High dietary polyphenol (especially flavonoids) intake has strongly been associated with low incidence of the primary outcome, overall mortality, blood pressure, inflammatory biomarkers, onset of new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and obesity. Phytogenic flavonoids affect the physiological and pathological processes of CVDs by modulating various biochemical signaling pathways. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have attracted increasing attention as fundamental regulator of gene expression involved in CVDs. Among the different ncRNA subgroups, long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) have recently emerged as regulatory eukaryotic transcripts and therapeutic targets with important and diverse functions in health and diseases. lncRNAs may be associated with the initiation, development and progression of CVDs by modulating acute and chronic inflammation, adipogenesis and lipid metabolism, and cellular physiology. This review summarizes this research on the modulatory effects of lncRNAs and their roles in mediating cellular processes. The mechanisms of action of flavonoids underlying their therapeutic effects on CVDs are also discussed. Based on our review, flavonoids might facilitate a significant epigenetic modification as part (if not full) of their tissue-/cell-related biological effects. This finding may be attributed to their interaction with cellular signaling pathways involved in chronic diseases. Certain lncRNAs might be the target of specific flavonoids, and some critical signaling processes involved in the intervention of CVDs might mediate the therapeutic roles of flavonoids.

Abstract
Endothelial cells are major constituents in the vasculature, and they act as important players in vascular homeostasis via secretion/release of vasodilators and vasoconstrictors. In healthy arteries, endothelial cells play a key role in the regulation of vascular tone, cellular adhesion, and angiogenesis. A shift in the functions of the blood vessels toward vasoconstriction, proinflammatory state, oxidative stress and deficiency of nitric oxide (NO) might lead to endothelial dysfunction, a key event implicated in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular metabolic diseases, including diabetes, atherosclerosis, arterial hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Thus, reversibility of endothelial dysfunction may be beneficial for maintaining vascular homeostasis. In recent years, accumulative evidence has documented that noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are critically involved in endothelial homeostasis. Specifically, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs are highly expressed in endothelial cells where they serve as important mediators in normal endothelial functions. Dysregulation of lncRNAs and circular RNAs has been tightly associated with hypertension-related endothelial dysfunction. In this review, we will summarize the current progression and underlying mechanisms of lncRNA and circular RNA in endothelial cell biology under hypertensive conditions. We will also highlight their potential as biomarkers or therapeutic targets for hypertension and its associated endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in adults in developed countries. CVD encompasses many diseased states, including hypertension, coronary artery disease and atherosclerosis. Studies in animal models and human studies have elucidated the contribution of many genetic factors, including non-coding RNAs. Non-coding RNAs are RNAs not translated into protein, involved in gene expression regulation post-transcriptionally and implicated in CVD. Of these, circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs are relevant. CircRNAs are created by the back-splicing of pre-messenger RNA and have been underexplored as contributors to CVD. These circRNAs may also act as biomarkers of human disease, as they can be extracted from whole blood, plasma, saliva and seminal fluid. CircRNAs have recently been implicated in various disease processes, including hypertension and other cardiovascular disease. This review article will explore the promising and emerging roles of circRNAs as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets in CVD, in particular hypertension.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignant neoplasm among women worldwide. Despite continuous improvement of breast cancer individualized comprehensive therapy, local recurrence and distant metastasis still remain the challenges due to the development of acquired drug-resistance. Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) is known to participated in the development of breast cancer. However, the mechanisms of LncRNAs involving in drug-resistance of breast cancer during chemotherapy remain to be further elucidated. Aiming to screen for candidate LncRNAs responsible for breast cancer mechanism, we first investigated the expression patterns of LncRNAs and mRNAs in paired breast cancer tissues and normal tissues using Agilent Human lncRNA array. The microarray results clearly demonstrated multiple differentially expressed mRNAs and LncRNAs including LncRNA NONHSAT141924. The remarkable up-regulation of LncRNA NONHSAT141924 in breast cancer MCF-7 was further confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR. GO and KEGG pathway analysis demonstrated that LncRNA NONHSAT141924 was most closely associated with paclitaxel (PTX)-resistant phenotype. To further explore the mechanism by which LncRNA NONHSAT141924 contributes to PTX-resistant characteristics, LncRNA NONHSAT141924 was transfected into MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. Overexpression of LncRNA NONHSAT141924 significantly reduced MCF-7 cell survivability through modulation of p-CREB/Bcl-2 apoptosis signaling pathway, one of the major pathways participated in LncRNAs-mediated chemotherapy resistance. Taken together, our study provides a new LncRNA-mediated regulatory mechanism for PTX-resistance of breast cancer and suggests that therapeutic inhibition of LncRNA NONHSAT141924 might be an efficient strategy for PTX-resistant breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-(protein)-coding RNAs longer than ~200 nucleotides and have been reported to be involved in multiple human diseases by regulating gene expression. A growing body of evidence has demonstrated that lncRNAs are also widely implicated in mechanisms of hypertension, including regulation of the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis of VSMCs; the production of iNOS and NO; and the angiogenic function of endothelial cells. Several lncRNAs were also differentially expressed in the renal and cardiac tissues of hypertensive rats and even in placental samples from preeclampsia patients. In particular, several circulating lncRNAs have been identified as novel biomarkers of hypertension. In this review, we summarize the current studies of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of hypertension in order to aid in better understanding the molecular mechanism of hypertension and provide a basis to explore new therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) has been identified as the leading malignancy in women worldwide. However, the potential molecular mechanism of microRNA (miR)‑203a‑3p in BC remains to be elucidated. The present study evaluated the expression of miR‑203a‑3p in BC and adjacent normal tissue in several publically available datasets. The distinguishability of precursor miR‑203a and miR‑203a‑3p in BC tissue and adjacent breast tissue was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and summarized ROC (sROC) approaches. In addition, gene ontology (GO) enrichment, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis and protein‑protein interaction analysis were performed to determine the potential molecular mechanism of miR‑203a‑3p in BC. It was identified that the expression of precursor miR‑203a was markedly upregulated in 1,077 BC tissue samples compared to 104 adjacent breast tissue samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Additionally, an increasing trend in miR‑203a‑3p expression was observed in 756 BC tissue samples compared with 76 adjacent breast tissue samples from the University of California Santa Cruz Xena project. In addition, a comprehensive meta‑analysis suggested that the expression of miR‑203a‑3p was markedly increased in 2,444 BC tissue samples compared with 559 adjacent breast tissue samples. The area under the curve of the ROC and sROC revealed that miR‑203a‑3p expression was able to distinguish between BC tissue and adjacent breast tissue. However, miR‑203a‑3p exhibited no prognostic value in BC. The results of GO enrichment demonstrated that the miR‑203a target genes were associated with 'plasma membrane integrity', 'cell surface receptor linked signal and transduction' and '3',5'‑cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity'. 'Purine metabolism' was identified as the pathway with the most enrichment of miR‑203a‑3p target genes in BC. The present study also identified insulin‑like growth factor receptor (IGF1) as a hub gene associated with miR‑203a in BC. In summary, miR‑203a‑3p may enhance the development and oncogenesis of BC, and IGF1 was defined as a hub gene of miR‑203a‑3p in BC.
