Abstract
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as pivotal regulators of gene expression, and have attracted significant attention because of their various roles in biological processes. These molecules have transcriptional activity despite their inability to encode proteins. Moreover, research has revealed that ncRNAs, especially microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), are linked to pervasive regulators of kidney disease, including anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic, antifibrotic, and proangiogenic actions in acute and chronic kidney disease. Although the exact therapeutic mechanism of ncRNAs remains uncertain, their value in treatment has been studied in clinical trials. The numerous renal diseases and the beneficial or harmful effects of NcRNAs on the kidney will be discussed in this article. Afterward, exploring the biological characteristics of ncRNAs, as well as their purpose and potential contributions to acute and chronic renal disease, were explored. This may offer guidance for treating both acute and long-term kidney illnesses, as well as insights into the potential use of these indicators as kidney disease biomarkers.
期刊介绍:
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry: An International Journal for Chemical Biology in Health and Disease publishes original research papers and short communications in all areas of the biochemical sciences, emphasizing novel findings relevant to the biochemical basis of cellular function and disease processes, as well as the mechanics of action of hormones and chemical agents. Coverage includes membrane transport, receptor mechanism, immune response, secretory processes, and cytoskeletal function, as well as biochemical structure-function relationships in the cell.
In addition to the reports of original research, the journal publishes state of the art reviews. Specific subjects covered by Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry include cellular metabolism, cellular pathophysiology, enzymology, ion transport, lipid biochemistry, membrane biochemistry, molecular biology, nuclear structure and function, and protein chemistry.
