Long noncoding RNAs in cardiovascular disease.
Current Opinion in Cardiology 2023 May 2
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Here, we review recent findings on the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition, we highlight some of the latest findings in lncRNA biology, providing an outlook for future avenues of lncRNA research in CVD.
RECENT FINDINGS: Recent publications provide translational evidence from patient studies and animal models for the role of specific lncRNAs in CVD. The molecular effector mechanisms of these lncRNAs are diverse. Overall, cell-type selective modulation of gene expression is the largest common denominator. New methods, such as single-cell profiling and CRISPR/Cas9-screening, reveal additional novel mechanistic principles: For example, many lncRNAs establish RNA-based spatial compartments that concentrate effector proteins. Also, RNA modifications and splicing features can be determinants of lncRNA function.
SUMMARY: lncRNA research is passing the stage of enumerating lncRNAs or recording simplified on-off expression switches. Mechanistic analyses are starting to reveal overarching principles of how lncRNAs can function. Exploring these principles with decisive genetic testing in vivo remains the ultimate test to discern how lncRNA loci, by RNA motifs or DNA elements, affect CVD pathophysiology.
