Long non-coding (lnc) RNA serves a vital role in the cellular processes of carcinoma. This study aimed to explore the accurate mechanism underlying lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8) in melanoma. In this study, lncRNA SNHG8 expression were upregulated in melanoma tissues and cells, and lncRNA SNHG8 knockdown reduced melanoma cell viability, migration and invasion. Moreover, lncRNA SNHG8 expression could be induced by transcription factor YY1. In addition, we found that miR-656 could directly bind to lncRNA SNHG8 and SERPINE1 mRNA binding protein 1 (SERBP1). Rescue assays indicated that miR-656 overexpression inhibited the aforementioned cellular activities in melanoma cells, which were reversed by SERBP1 overexpression. In conclusion, this work elucidated that YY1-induced upregulation of lncRNA SNHG8 boosted the development of melanoma via the miR-656-3p/SERBP1 axis, providing a novel therapeutic strategy for melanoma treatment.

Introduction: The study aimed to evaluate, for the first time, the diagnostic value of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8) in sepsis and its molecular mechanisms in sepsis-induced inflammation and cardiac dysfunction.

Material And Methods: A total of 126 sepsis patients and 81 healthy controls were enrolled. Serum SNHG8 levels were assessed by RT-qPCR.

Objective: The morphology and functions of the human trabecular meshwork (HTM) are dysregulated in glaucoma, and the molecular mechanisms of this dysregulation remain unknown. According to an established model, whose function was to study the regulatory networks sustaining the response of HTM cells to the increased substrate stiffness, we systematically analyzed the expression pattern of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), the important regulatory RNAs in cells.

Methods: Bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify the dysregulated lncRNAs in response to increased substrate stiffness using transcriptome sequencing data (RNA-seq).

A plethora of studies have demonstrated the roles of lncRNAs in modulating disease severity and outcomes during infection. However, the spatio-temporal expression of these lncRNAs is poorly understood. In this study, we used single-cell RNA-seq to understand the spatio-temporal expression dynamics of lncRNAs across healthy, SARS-CoV-2-infected, and recovered individuals and their functional role in modulating the disease and recovery.

Long noncoding RNAs have been shown to be involved in a myriad of physiological and pathological pathways. To date, malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is considered an extremely aggressive cancer. One reason for this is the late diagnosis of the disease, which can occur within 30-40 years of asbestos exposure.
