“This #discovery paves the way to use these (long noncoding) #RNA molecules as a #therapeutictarget, which could mean a #paradigmshift in the treatment protocols of these diseases.” - @IRBBarcelona https://t.co/x1JFLH8sFH

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

A team led by researchers at @EPFL_en found that expression of the #longnoncodingRNA “CYTOR” is induced by exercise but declines during rodent and human skeletal muscle #aging. https://t.co/e7hWqnHl94

New #research demonstrates the potential of #lncRNAs as #clinicalbiomarkers and potential #therapeutictargets, break new ground in #biomarker and #cancerbiology research and add to emerging #science about the role of #noncodingRNA in #cancer... @OICR_news https://t.co/1JydbB9KWh

According to the new #research — conducted in mice implanted with human #prostatetumor samples — restoring this #longnoncodingRNA could be a new strategy to treat #prostatecancer that has developed resistance to #hormonaltherapies. - @WUSTLmed https://t.co/y0kpFFISYm

“#Cancer #lncRNAs that provoke #tumours represent an exciting new focus for the development of #cancertherapies” - @unibern https://t.co/TxmOOD1nDC

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

Researchers have uncovered a #longnoncodingRNA (#lncRNA) that may point the way toward new therapies for #atherosclerosis and shed light on why the likelihood of the disease increases with age. https://t.co/dl6CxtC6xF

As part of the @icgc_dcc Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole #Genomes (#PCAWG) Consortium, @unibern researchers introduce the #CancerLncRNACensus (CLC), a compilation of 122 #GENCODE #lncRNAs with causal roles in #cancer phenotypes. - @GOLDLab_Bern https://t.co/mTpSvJV1VX

An international team led by researchers at the @embl report structural and functional studies of human maternally expressed gene 3 (#MEG3), a #tumorsuppressor #lncRNA that modulates the #p53 response. https://t.co/pPcOSZP303

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

Previously, it was believed that #lncRNAs served no major purpose in cells, but new research at @SyddanskUniv now shows that one of these lncRNAs termed ‘#lincIRS2’ is important for safeguarding our #metabolism https://t.co/81lt8K5ei3

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

From a group of 245 #lncRNAs that were associated with melanomas researchers identified one, called #DIRC3, which acted as a #tumorsuppressor to block the spread of human #melanoma cells - @UniofBath @Ludwig_Cancer @sangerinstitute @unil https://t.co/l8xZrTezVU

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

It has recently been shown that more than 90 percent of the #genome encodes a new and mysterious class of #RNAs, called #longnoncodingRNA molecules (#lncRNA). This is the first full 3-D structural study of lncRNA - @LosAlamosNatLab @uLethbridge @univienna https://t.co/wCViwRWxcR

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

Researchers at @WUSTL found that key changes that occurred during #ricedomestication more than 9,000 years ago could be tied back to molecules called #longnoncodingRNAs (#lncRNAs), a class of #RNA molecules longer than 200 #nucleotides. https://t.co/iUa2cvhqer

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

A team of researchers from @yonsei_u and @ilove_HYU said they have found a new #lncRNA #gene that controls the development of #esophagealsquamouscellcarcinoma (#ESCC), intractable #cancer in the esophagus. https://t.co/BL90TK81VD

[lncRNA Blog @lncRNABlog]

By analysing hundreds of #tumour samples of children with #neuroblastoma, researchers at @KidsCancerInst found that high levels of the #longnoncodingRNA #lncNB1 are a #biomarker of poor prognosis. https://t.co/SaHblgUpF2
