Abstract

With rapid advances in high-performance genome analysis technology, studying of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has become a very popular topic in biomedical research. LncRNAs are a group of non-coding RNAs with a length of more than 200 nucleotides. LncRNAs play a fundamental role in cell proliferation and differentiation, and epigenetic regulation. Thus, studying lncRNAs will give a new understanding of gene regulation and will open up new possibilities for treating and diagnosing many diseases, including tumors. The identification of new molecular markers in the form of circulating lncRNAs will improve tumor detection, predicting the course of the disease, treatment planning, and diagnosing at the earliest signs of upcoming neoplastic transformation. Treatment of tumors, especially malignant ones, is also a difficult task. When surgery and chemotherapy are not effective, radiation therapy becomes the treatment of choice. Therefore, the possibility of lncRNAs being innovative therapeutic agents in tumors is a viable idea. However, the possibility of their use in modern clinical practice is limited due to the number of problems associated with significant differences between procedures for processing samples, methods of analysis, and especially strategies for standardizing results. Another problem for conducting studies on the profiling of lncRNAs expression is their large number and the diversity of their functions in tumors. Therefore, the solution of technological problems on the profiling of lncRNAs expression in tumors may open up new possibilities for the use of lncRNAs in modern clinical practice.
