Abstract
Meningiomas, characterized primarily as benign intracranial or spinal tumors, present distinctive challenges due to their variable clinical behavior, with certain cases exhibiting aggressive features linked to elevated morbidity and mortality. Despite their prevalence, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing the initiation and progression of meningiomas remain insufficiently understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small endogenous non-coding RNAs orchestrating post-transcriptional gene expression, have garnered substantial attention in this context. They emerge as pivotal biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets, offering innovative avenues for managing meningiomas. Recent research delves into the intricate mechanisms by which miRNAs contribute to meningioma pathogenesis, unraveling the molecular complexities of this enigmatic tumor. Meningiomas, originating from arachnoid meningothelial cells and known for their gradual growth, constitute a significant portion of intracranial tumors. The clinical challenge lies in comprehending their progression, particularly factors associated with brain invasion and heightened recurrence rates, which remain elusive. This comprehensive review underscores the pivotal role of miRNAs, accentuating their potential to advance our comprehension of meningioma biology. Furthermore, it suggests promising directions for developing diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic interventions, holding the promise of markedly improved patient outcomes in the face of this intricate and variable disease.

Abstract
CC (CC) remains a significant global health concern, imposing a substantial health burden on women worldwide due to its high incidence and mortality rates. To address this issue, there is a need for ongoing research to uncover the underlying molecular mechanisms of CC and to discover novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Recent progress in non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) has opened new avenues for investigation, and circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as molecules with diverse roles in various cellular processes. These circRNAs are distinct in structure, forming a closed loop, setting them apart from their linear counterparts. They are intricately involved in regulating different aspects of cellular functions, particularly in cell growth and development. Remarkably, circRNAs can have varying functions, either promoting or inhibiting oncogenic processes, depending on the specific cellular context. Recent studies have identified abnormal circRNAs expression patterns associated with CC, indicating their significant involvement in disease development. The differing circRNAs profiles linked to CC present promising opportunities for early detection, precise prognosis evaluation, and personalized treatment strategies. In this comprehensive review, we embark on a detailed exploration of CC-related circRNAs, elucidating their distinct roles and providing insights into the intricate molecular mechanisms governing CC's onset and progression. A growing body of evidence strongly suggests that circRNAs can serve as valuable biomarkers for early CC detection and hold potential as therapeutic targets for intervention. By delving into the complex interplay between circRNAs and CC, we are paving the way for innovative, individualized approaches to combat this serious disease, with the goal of reducing its impact on women's health globally and improving patient outcomes. As our understanding of circRNAs in the context of CC continues to deepen, the outlook for breakthroughs in diagnosis and treatment becomes increasingly promising.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) is a fascinating covalently closed circular non-coding RNA that is abundantly present in the transcriptome of eukaryotic cells. Its versatile nature allows it to participate in a multitude of pathological and physiological processes within the organism. One of its crucial functions is acting as a microRNA sponge, modulating protein transcription levels, and forming interactions with essential RNA-binding proteins. Remarkably, circRNAs demonstrates a specific enrichment in various vital areas of the brain, including the cortex, hippocampus, white matter, and photoreceptor neurons, particularly in aging organisms. This intriguing characteristic has led scientists to explore its potential as a significant biological marker of neurodegeneration, offering promising insights into neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD). In AD, there has been an interesting observation of elevated levels of circRNAs in both peripheral blood and synaptic terminals of affected individuals. This intriguing finding raises the possibility that circRNAs may have a central role in the initiation and progression of AD. Notably, different categories of circRNAs, including HDAC9, HOMER1, Cwc27, Tulp4, and PTK2, have been implicated in driving the pathological changes associated with AD through diverse mechanisms. For instance, these circRNAs have been demonstrated to contribute to the accumulation of beta-amyloid, which is a hallmark characteristic of AD. Additionally, these circRNAs contribute to the excessive phosphorylation of tau protein, a phenomenon associated with neurofibrillary tangles, further exacerbating the disease. Moreover, they are involved in aggravating neuroinflammation, which is known to play a critical role in AD's pathogenesis. Lastly, these circRNAs can cause mitochondrial dysfunction, disrupting cellular energy production and leading to cognitive impairment. As researchers delve deeper into the intricate workings of circRNAs, they hope to unlock its full potential as a diagnostic tool and therapeutic target for neurodegenerative disorders, paving the way for innovative treatments and better management of such devastating conditions.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex neurological disorder that often results in long-term disabilities, cognitive impairments, and emotional disturbances. Despite significant advancements in understanding the pathophysiology of TBI, effective treatments remain limited. In recent years, exosomal non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as potential players in TBI pathogenesis and as novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Exosomal ncRNAs are small RNA molecules that are secreted by cells and transported to distant sites, where they can modulate gene expression and cell signaling pathways. They have been shown to play important roles in various aspects of TBI, such as neuroinflammation, blood-brain barrier dysfunction, and neuronal apoptosis. The ability of exosomal ncRNAs to cross the blood-brain barrier and reach the brain parenchyma makes them attractive candidates for non-invasive biomarkers and drug delivery systems. However, significant challenges still need to be addressed before exosomal ncRNAs can be translated into clinical practice, including standardization of isolation and quantification methods, validation of their diagnostic and prognostic value, and optimization of their therapeutic efficacy and safety. This review aims to summarize the current knowledge regarding the role of exosomal ncRNAs in TBI, including their biogenesis, function, and potential applications in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. We also discuss the challenges and future perspectives of using exosomal ncRNAs as clinical tools for TBI management.

Abstract
The detection and defense against foreign agents and pathogens by the innate immune system is a crucial mechanism in the body. A comprehensive understanding of the signaling mechanisms involved in innate immunity is essential for developing effective diagnostic tools and therapies for infectious diseases. Innate immune response is a complex process involving recognition of pathogens through receptors, activation of signaling pathways, and cytokine production, which are all crucial for deploying appropriate countermeasures. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are vital regulators of the immune response during infections, mediating the body's defense mechanisms. However, an overactive immune response can lead to tissue damage, and maintaining immune homeostasis is a complex process in which ncRNAs play a significant role. Recent studies have identified microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as key players in controlling gene expression in innate immune pathways, thereby participating in antiviral defenses, tumor immunity, and autoimmune diseases. MiRNAs act by regulating host defense mechanisms against viruses, bacteria, and fungi by targeting mRNA at the post-transcriptional level, while lncRNAs function as competing RNAs, blocking the binding of miRNAs to mRNA. This review provides an overview of the regulatory role of miRNAs and lncRNAs in innate immunity and its mechanisms, as well as highlights potential future research directions, including the expression and maturation of new ncRNAs and the conservation of ncRNAs in evolution.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia that often occurs in patients with structural heart disease and is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in clinical settings. AF is typically associated with significant changes of both the structure of the atria and the cardiac conduction system. AF can result in reduced heart function, heart failure, and various other complications. Current drug therapy for AF patients is often ineffective and may have adverse effects. Radiofrequency ablation is more effective than traditional drug therapy, but this invasive procedure carries potential risks and may lead to postoperative recurrence, limiting the clinical benefits to some extent. Therefore, in-depth research into the molecular mechanisms of AF and exploration of new treatment strategies based on research findings are prerequisites for improving the treatment of AF and the associated cardiac conditions. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a new class of noncoding RNA (ncRNAs) with a length exceeding 200 nt, which regulate gene expression at multiple levels. Increasing evidence suggests that lncRNAs participate in many pathological processes of AF initiation, development, and maintenance, such as structural remodeling, electrical remodeling, renin-angiotensin system anomalies, and intracellular calcium deregulation s. LncRNAs that play key roles in structural and electrical remodeling may become molecular markers and targets for AF diagnosis and treatment, respectively, while lncRNAs critical to autonomic nervous system remodeling may bring new insights into the prognosis and recurrence of AF. This review article provides a synopsis on the up-to-date research findings relevant to the roles of lncRNAs in AF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemoresistance, i.e., resistance to cisplatin (DDP), has been a major obstacle to ovarian cancer treatment. It has been found that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play vital roles in the tumorigenesis various cancers by regulating autophagy, while few studies focusing on cisplatin-resistance ovarian cancer (CROC). METHODS The expressions of the circRNAs were detected by qRT-PCR. Short hairpin RNA targeting circRNA was used to explore the biological functions of the circRNA. Cell viability, autophagic flux, immunofluorescence, and xenograft tumors experiments were performed to further illustrate the underlying mechanisms. RESULTS Hsa_circ_0000585 was increased in cisplatin-resistant SKOV3/DDP cells. Stably knocking down hsa_circRNA_0000585 expression in SKOV3/DDP cells was established by RNA interference. We found that downregulation of hsa_circ_0000585 significantly enhanced the sensitivity of DDP/SkOV3 cells to DDP. In vivo study, hsa_circRNA_0000585 knockdown significantly decreased tumor volume in nude mice. Under the measurements of western blot and cellular immunofluorescence, hsa_circ_0000585 knockdown significantly inhibited the expression of Beclin1 and P62, indicating the autophagic flux was inhibited. Administrations with autophagic inhibitor "Chloroquine (CQ)" and autophagy activator "QX77" further confirmed that hsa_circ_0000585 knockdown resulted in autophagy inhibition. CONCLUSIONS Overall, this study provided a new insight into the role of circRNAs in the mechanism of DDP-resistance in ovarian cancer. Hsa_circRNA_0000585 may be promising therapeutic targets for the enhancement of the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin-mediated chemotherapy.

Abstract
Small interfering RNA (siRNAs) is a double-stranded RNA molecule which can hybridize with a specific mRNA sequence and block the translation of numerous genes to regulate endogenous genes and to defend the genome from invasive nucleic acids. The use of siRNAs has been studied as a treatment option for various skin conditions. One of the main obstacles in the dermal or transdermal delivery of this compound is low skin permeability, and application is limited by its negative charge, high polarity, susceptibility to degradation by nucleases, and difficulty in penetrating the skin barrier. Effective delivery of therapeutic biomolecules to their target is a challenging issue, which can be solved by innovations in drug delivery systems and lead to improvement of the efficiency of many new biopharmaceuticals. Designing of novel transdermal delivery systems garnered tremendous attention in both cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical research and industries, which offers a number of advantages. Developing safe and efficient siRNAs delivery vectors is essential for effective treatment of skin diseases. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the creation of delivery systems using lipids, polymers, cell-penetrating peptides, nanoparticles and other biologically active agents. In this review we will focus on the recent advancements in transdermal siRNAs delivery vectors, such as liposomes, dendrimers, cell-penetrating peptides, and spherical nucleic acid nanoparticles.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women. The detection of oncopathologies in the early stages of development is a paramount task of modern medicine, which can be solved only by improving modern diagnostic methods. The use of screening for certain tumor markers could complement modern tests such as testing for oncogenic types of human papillomavirus (HPV), cytology, colposcopy with acetic acid and iodine solutions. Such highly informative biomarkers can be long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that are highly specific compared to the mRNA profile and are involved in the regulation of gene expression. LncRNAs are a class of non-coding RNAs molecules that are typically over 200 nucleotides in length. LncRNAs may be involved in the regulation of all major cellular processes, including proliferation and differentiation, metabolism, signaling pathways, and apoptosis. LncRNAs molecules are highly stable due to their small size, which is also their undoubted advantage. The study of individual lncRNAs as regulators of the expression of genes involved in the mechanisms of oncogenesis cervical cancer can be not only of great diagnostic value, but, as a result, of therapeutic significance in cervical cancer patients. This review article will present the characteristics of lncRNAs that allow them to be used as accurate diagnostic and prognostic tools, as well as to consider them as effective therapeutic targets in cervical cancer.

Abstract
In recent times, the rising prevalence of obesity and its associated comorbidities have had a severe impact on human health and social progress. Therefore, scientists are delving deeper into the pathogenesis of obesity, exploring the role of non-coding RNAs. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), once regarded as mere "noise" during genome transcription, have now been confirmed through numerous studies to regulate gene expression and contribute to the occurrence and progression of several human diseases. LncRNAs can interact with protein, DNA, and RNA, respectively, and participate in regulating gene expression by modulating the levels of visible modification, transcription, post-transcription, and biological environment. Increasingly, researchers have established the involvement of lncRNAs in regulating adipogenesis, development, and energy metabolism of adipose tissue (white and brown fat). In this article, we present a literature review of the role of lncRNAs in the development of adipose cells.

Abstract
Cancer 'stemness' is fundamental to cancer existence. It defines the ability of cancer cells to indefinitely perpetuate as well as differentiate. Cancer stem cell populations within a growing tumor also help evade the inhibitory effects of chemo- as well as radiation-therapies, in addition to playing an important role in cancer metastases. NF-κB and STAT-3 are representative transcription factors (TFs) that have long been associated with cancer stemness, thus presenting as attractive targets for cancer therapy. The growing interest in non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in the recent years has provided further insight into the mechanisms by which TFs influence cancer stem cell characteristics. There is evidence for a direct regulation of TFs by ncRNAs, such as, microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as well as circular RNAs (circRNAs), and vice versa. Additionally, the TF-ncRNAs regulations are often indirect, involving ncRNA-target genes or the sponging of other ncRNA species by individual ncRNAs. The information is rapidly evolving and this review provides a comprehensive review of TF-ncRNAs interactions with implications on cancer stemness and in response to therapies. Such knowledge will help uncover the many levels of tight regulations that control cancer stemness, providing novel opportunities and targets for therapy in the process.

Noncoding RNA Res 2023; 8:294-301. [PMID: 36970373 PMCID: PMC10031277 DOI: 10.1016/j.ncrna.2023.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids (fat) in the liver is closely interconnected both in physiological conditions and in pathology. This relationship in the body is possible due to the regulation by many factors, including epigenetic ones. Histone modifications, DNA methylation, and non-coding RNAs are considered to be the main epigenetic factors. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) refers to ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules that do not code for a protein. They cover a huge number of RNA classes and perform a wide range of biological functions such as regulating gene expression, protecting the genome from exogenous DNA, and directing DNA synthesis. One such class of ncRNAs that has been extensively studied are long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). The important role of lncRNAs in the formation and maintenance of normal homeostasis of biological systems, as well as participation in many pathological processes, has been proven. The results of recent studies indicate the importance of lncRNAs in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Modifications of lncRNAs expression can lead to disruption of biological processes in tissues, including fat and protein, such as adipocyte proliferation and differentiation, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Further study of lncRNAs made it possible to partly determine the regulatory mechanisms underlying the formation of an imbalance in carbohydrate and fat metabolism individually and in their relationship, and the degree of interaction between different types of cells involved in this process. This review will focus on the function of lncRNAs and its relation to hepatic carbohydrate and fat metabolism and related diseases in order to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and prospects for studies with lncRNAs.

Regulation and mechanism of action of miRNAs on insulin resistance in skeletal muscles. Noncoding RNA Res 2023; 8:218-223.

Abstract
The term "insulin resistance" is commonly understood as a decrease in the response of insulin-sensitive tissues to insulin at its sufficient concentration, leading to chronic compensatory hyperinsulinemia. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is based on mechanisms consisting in the development of resistance to insulin in target cells (hepatocytes, adipocytes, skeletal muscle cells), resulting in the termination of an adequate response of these tissues to interaction with insulin. Since in healthy people 75-80% of glucose is utilized by skeletal muscle, it is more likely that the main cause of insulin resistance is impaired insulin-stimulated glucose utilization by skeletal muscle. With insulin resistance, skeletal muscles do not respond to insulin at its normal concentration, thereby determining an increase in glucose levels and a compensatory increase in insulin production in response to this. Despite many years of studying diabetes mellitus (DM) and insulin resistance, the molecular genetic basis for the development of these pathological conditions is still the subject of numerous studies. Recent studies point to the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) as dynamic modifiers in the pathogenesis of various diseases. MiRNAs are a separate class of RNA molecules that play a key role in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Recent studies have shown that miRNAs dysregulation in DM is closely related to miRNAs regulatory abilities in skeletal muscle insulin resistance. This gave grounds to consider an increase or decrease in the expression of individual microRNAs in muscle tissue and consider them as new biomarkers for diagnosing and monitoring insulin resistance and promising directions for targeted therapy. This review presents the results of scientific studies examining the role of miRNAs in skeletal muscle insulin resistance.

Abstract
Bronchial asthma, commonly known as asthma, is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by airway inflammation, increased responsiveness and changes in airway structure. T cells, particularly T helper cells, play a crucial role in the disease. Non-coding RNAs, which are RNAs that do not code for proteins, mainly include microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs, and circular RNAs, play a role in regulating various biological processes. Studies have shown that non-coding RNAs have an important role in the activation and transformation of T cells and other biological processes in asthma. The specific mechanisms and clinical applications are worth further examination. This article reviews the recent research on the role of microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs in T cells in asthma.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a first-line priority among the problems facing medical science and public health in almost all countries of the world. The main problem of DM is the high incidence of damage to the cardiovascular system, which in turn leads to diseases such as myocardial infarction, stroke, gangrene of the lower extremities, blindness and chronic renal failure. As a result, the study of the molecular genetic mechanisms of the pathogenesis of DM is of critical importance for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Molecular genetic aspects of the etiology and pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus are intensively studied in well-known laboratories around the world. One of the strategies in this direction is to study the role of exosomes in the pathogenesis of DM. Exosomes are microscopic extracellular vesicles with a diameter of 30-100 nm, released into the intercellular space by cells of various tissues and organs. The content of exosomes depends on the cell type and includes mRNA, non-coding RNAs, DNA, and so on. Non-coding RNAs, a group of RNAs with limited transcriptional activity, have been discovered to play a significant role in regulating gene expression through epigenetic and posttranscriptional modulation, such as silencing of messenger RNA. One of the problems of usage exosomes in DM is the identification of the cellular origin of exosomes and the standardization of protocols for molecular genetic studies in clinical laboratories. In addition, the question of the target orientation of exosomes and their targeted activity requires additional study. Solving these and other problems will make it possible to use exosomes for the diagnosis and delivery of drugs directly to target cells in DM. This study presents an analysis of literature data on the role of exosomes and ncRNAs in the development and progression of DM, as well as the prospects for the use of exosomes in clinical practice in this disease.

Abstract
Female infertility is a significant health issue worldwide with a rising incidence. Anti-cancer therapy is one of the most important reasons for increasing infertility. Although anti-cancer treatment increases the rate of survival, it decreases the quality of life through its side effects. The most substantial side effects are sexual dysfunction and infertility. Breast cancer is the most common cancer. The first-line treatment of breast cancer is chemotherapy by alkylating agents like cyclophosphamide, which leads to infertility. For instance, persistent chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea among breast cancer patients could affect almost half of the patients that undergo such therapy. However, some agents or therapeutic methods can ameliorate these intoxicating effects. Chemotherapy plus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, in breast cancer patients, can not only improve overall survival but also reduce ovarian toxicity. Age plays an essential role in chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea. Chemotherapy at a younger age can reduce the risk of infertility. Gynecological cancers including uterine and ovarian cancer, which have high mortality rates, are the most related cancers to infertility. Surgery is the primary treatment of gynecological cancers. Studies demonstrated that fertility-sparing surgery is a better option than radical surgery. In addition, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is mostly a better option than primary cytoreductive surgery in terms of survival and fertility. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have recently played a major role in treating various cancer types. However, ICIs are associated with hypophysitis, which affects ovaries and can lead to infertility. There are some options for ovarian preservation such as embryo cryopreservation, oocyte cryopreservation, ovarian transposition, ovarian tissue cryopreservation, and ovarian suppression by GnRH agonists. Anti-müllerian hormone level can be utilized to monitor the ovarian reserve. Moreover, to avoid fertility loss, approaches such as using transplantation of human placenta mesenchymal stem cells, administrating anti-inflammatory agents and hormone therapy are under investigation.
