Article Abstract
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) belong to a class of untranslated nucleic acids involved in regulation of gene expression. ncRNAs are categorized as small (<200 ribonucleotides in length), i.e., microRNAs (miRNAs), and long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) (200 to thousands of ribonucleotides in length) and circular RNAs (circRNAs). In contrast to miRNAs, the roles of lncRNAs in general and circRNAs in bone metabolism specifically are not well understood. As such, a comprehensive understanding of these RNA species in bone turnover could be of great value in the development of new diagnostic tools and therapeutic targets. Unfortunately, measurement of these unique RNAs lacks standardization, a component critical to clinical translation. This review examines the potential role of lncRNA and circRNA as bone biomarkers, the need for validated and standardized measurement and challenges thereof.

Cancer-associated muscle wasting is associated with poor clinical outcomes, but its underlying biology is largely uncharted in humans. Unbiased analysis of the RNAome (coding and non-coding RNAs) with unsupervised clustering using integrative non-negative matrix factorization provides a means of identifying distinct molecular subtypes and was applied here to muscle of patients with colorectal or pancreatic cancer. Rectus abdominis biopsies from 84 patients were profiled using high-throughput next-generation sequencing.

In this edition of Gene's "Editor's Corner" we summarize the complex interactions of different molecular mechanisms behind the pathogenesis of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). The topic is relevant, as the therapeutic options for HIE are limited, it is important to have as much knowledge as possible about the molecular processes underlying the disease. In the recent issue of Gene (Gene 952, 2025, 149363), Wang et al.

Neural stem cells (NSCs) in the subventricular zone (SVZ) produce neurons throughout life. However, the epigenetic mechanisms that maintain NSCs and control neurogenesis remain unclear. We previously showed the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) Paupar and KAP1 transcription co-factor control neuroblastoma cell growth.

To maintain genomic stability, cells have evolved complex mechanisms collectively known as the DNA damage response (DDR), which includes DNA repair, cell cycle checkpoints, apoptosis, and gene expression regulation. Recent studies have revealed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are pivotal regulators of the DDR. Beyond their established roles in recruiting repair proteins and modulating gene expression, emerging evidence highlights two particularly intriguing functions.
