Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivot roles in regulating mRNA expression in eukaryotic organisms without coding any proteins. In the current study, a comprehensive analysis of 260 published RNA-Seq datasets collected from different tissues (fruits, leaves, stems, and roots) of L. was performed to discover potential lncRNAs. A total of 10,564 unique lncRNAs were identified. Our results showed that 77.14% of the lncRNAs were intergenic and 60.39% of them are located within 5 Kbp from the partner gene. In general, all the identified lncRNAs showed shorter lengths, fewer number of exons, and lower expression levels as compared to mRNAs in different studied tissues. Several lncRNAs were determined as differentially expressed (DE) in fruits as compared to leaves, stems, or roots. The functional characterization of the DE lncRNAs revealed their roles in regulating significant biological processes in different tissues of . . The current study provides a comprehensive analysis and dataset of lncRNAs in . that could be utilized in further studies concerning the roles of these molecules in plant cells.

Introduction: Ovarian Cancer (OC) was known for its high mortality rate among gynecological malignancies, often resulting in a poor prognosis. This study sought to identify prognostic necroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) (NRlncRNAs) with prognostic potential and to construct a reliable risk prediction model for OC patients.

Method: The transcriptome and clinic data were sourced from TCGA and GTEx databases.

Purpose: (Tumor-educated platelets) TEPs have emerged as active players in all steps of tumorigenesis, confrontation of platelets with tumor cells via transfer of tumor-associated biomolecules and results in the sequestration of such biomolecules. The current study was aimed to examine whether TEPs lncRNA-STARD4-AS1 and ELOA-AS1 might be potential biomarkers for NSCLC.

Materials And Methods: TEPs were obtained by low-speed centrifugation.

Platinum resistance is a common cause of chemotherapy failure in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), which function by competitively binding to miRNAs, can influence drug response. However, the regulatory mechanisms of ceRNAs underlying chemoresistance in LUAD remain largely unknown.

Exploration of molecular markers is an ongoing focus in the field of bladder cancer research. Based on data from public databases, was identified as upregulated in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA); however, its exact function and regulatory mechanism in this context remain unclear. To investigate the clinical implications of , we examined its levels in 90 BLCA and adjoining normal tissue samples.
