Long Noncoding RNAs in the Regulation of Oxidative Stress

الملخص EN

Oxidative stress takes responsibility for various diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and cardiovascular disease; nevertheless, there is still a lack of specific biomarkers for the guidance of diagnosis and treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases.

In recent years, growing studies have documented that oxidative stress has crucial correlations with long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which have been identified as important transcriptions involving the process of oxidative stress, inflammation, etc.

and been regarded as the potential specific biomarkers.

In this paper, we review links between oxidative stress and lncRNAs, highlight lncRNAs that refer to oxidative stress, and conclude that lncRNAs have played a negative or positive role in the oxidation/antioxidant system, which may be helpful for the further investigation of specific biomarkers of oxidative stress-related diseases.
