With the rising interest in the regulatory functions of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in complex human diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, there is an increasing need in public databases offering comprehensive and integrative data for all aspects of these versatile molecules. Recently, a variety of public data repositories that specialized in lncRNAs have been developed, which make use of huge high-throughput data particularly from next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches. Here, we provide an overview of current lncRNA databases covering basic and functional annotation, lncRNA expression and regulation, interactions with other biomole-cules, and genomic variants influencing the structure and function of lncRNAs. The prominent lncRNA antisense noncoding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL), which has been unequivocally associated with coronary artery disease through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), serves as an example to demonstrate the features of each individual database. 相似文献

DNA double-strand breaks can seriously damage the genetic information that organisms depend on for survival and reproduction. Therefore, cells require a robust DNA damage response mechanism to repair the damaged DNA. Homologous recombination (HR) allows error-free repair, which is key to maintaining genomic integrity. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are RNA molecules that are longer than 200 nucleotides. In recent years, a number of studies have found that lncRNAs can act as regulators of gene expression and DNA damage response mechanisms, including HR repair. Moreover, they have significant effects on the occurrence, development, invasion and metastasis of tumor cells, as well as the sensitivity of tumors to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. These studies have therefore begun to expose the great potential of lncRNAs for clinical applications. In this review, we focus on the regulatory roles of lncRNAs in HR repair. 相似文献

DNA is continuously exposed to damaging agents that can lead to changes in the genetic information with adverse consequences. Nonetheless, eukaryotic cells have mechanisms such as the DNA damage response (DDR) to prevent genomic instability. The DNA of eukaryotic cells is packaged into nucleosomes, which fold the genome into highly condensed chromatin, but relatively little is known about the role of chromatin accessibility in DNA repair. p19INK4d, a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, plays an important role in cell cycle regulation and cellular DDR. Extensive data indicate that p19INK4d is a critical factor in the maintenance of genomic integrity and cell survival. p19INK4d is upregulated by various genotoxics, improving the repair efficiency for a variety of DNA lesions. The evidence of p19INK4d translocation into the nucleus and its low sequence specificity in its interaction with DNA prompted us to hypothesize that p19INK4d plays a role at an early stage of cellular DDR. In the present study, we demonstrate that upon oxidative DNA damage, p19INK4d strongly binds to and relaxes chromatin. Furthermore, in vitro accessibility assays show that DNA is more accessible to a restriction enzyme when a chromatinized plasmid is incubated in the presence of a protein extract with high levels of p19INK4d. Nuclear protein extracts from cells overexpressing p19INK4d are better able to repair a chromatinized and damaged plasmid. These observations support the notion that p19INK4d would act as a chromatin accessibility factor that allows the access of the repair machinery to the DNA damage site. 相似文献

Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as regulators of various biological processes, but to which extent lncRNAs play a role in genome integrity maintenance is not well understood. In this issue of EMBO Reports, Sharma et al 1 identify the DNA damage‐induced lncRNA DDSR1 as an integral player of the DNA damage response (DDR). DDSR1 has both an early role by modulating repair pathway choices, and a later function when it regulates gene expression. Sharma et al 1 thus uncover a dual role for a hitherto uncharacterized lncRNA during the cellular response to DNA damage. 相似文献

The INK4b-ARF-INK4a locus encodes for two cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, p15INK4b and p16INK4a, and a regulator of the p53 pathway, ARF. In addition ANRIL , a non-coding RNA, is also transcribed from the locus. ARF, p15INK4b and p16INK4a are well-established tumor suppressors which function is frequently disabled in human cancers. Recent studies showed that single nucleotide polymorphisms mapping in the vicinity of ANRIL are linked to a wide spectrum of conditions, including cardiovascular disease, ischemic stroke, type 2 diabetes, frailty and Alzheimer disease. The INK4b-ARF-INK4a locus is regulated by Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs) and its expression can be invoked by activating signals. Other epigenetic modifiers such as the histone demethylases JMJD3 and JHDM1B, the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex and DNA methyltransferases regulate the locus interplaying with PRCs. In view of the intimate involvement of the INK4b-ARF-INK4a locus on disease, to understand its regulation is the first step for manipulate it to therapeutic benefit.Key words: senescence, p16INK4a, ARF, p15INK4b, ANRIL, polycomb, histone demethylases, DNA methylation 相似文献

The maintenance of genomic integrity is of main importance to the survival and health of organisms which are continuously exposed to genotoxic stress. Cells respond to DNA damage by activating survival pathways consisting of cell cycle checkpoints and repair mechanisms. However, the signal that triggers the DNA damage response is not necessarily a direct detection of the primary DNA lesion. In fact, chromatin defects may serve as initiating signals to activate those mechanisms. If the modulation of chromatin structure could initiate a checkpoint response in a direct manner, this supposes the existence of specific chromatin sensors. p19INK4d, a member of the INK4 cell cycle inhibitors, plays a crucial role in regulating genomic stability and cell viability by enhancing DNA repair. Its expression is induced in cells injured by one of several genotoxic treatments like cis-platin, UV light or neocarzinostatin. Nevertheless, when exogenous DNA damaged molecules are introduced into the cell, this induction is not observed. Here, we show that p19INK4d is enhanced after chromatin relaxation even in the absence of DNA damage. This induction was shown to depend upon ATM/ATR, Chk1/Chk2 and E2F activity, as is the case of p19INK4d induction by endogenous DNA damage. Interestingly, p19INK4d improves DNA repair when the genotoxic damage is caused in a relaxed-chromatin context. These results suggest that changes in chromatin structure, and not DNA damage itself, is the actual trigger of p19INK4d induction. We propose that, in addition to its role as a cell cycle inhibitor, p19INK4d could participate in a signaling network directed to detecting and eventually responding to chromatin anomalies. 相似文献

Melanoma is the most lethal cutaneous cancer with a highly aggressive and metastatic phenotype. While recent genetic and epigenetic studies have shed new insights into the mechanism of melanoma development, the involvement of regulatory non‐coding RNAs remain unclear. Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of endogenous non‐protein‐coding RNAs with the capacity to regulate gene expression at multiple levels. Recent evidences have shown that lncRNAs can regulate many cellular processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and invasion. In the melanoma, deregulation of a number of lncRNAs, such as HOTAIR, MALAT1, BANCR, ANRIL, SPRY‐IT1 and SAMMSON, have been reported. Our review summarizes the functional role of lncRNAs in melanoma and their potential clinical application for diagnosis, prognostication and treatment. 相似文献

Long non‐coding RNAs (LncRNAs) and DNA methylation are important epigenetic mark play a key role in liver fibrosis. Currently, how DNA methylation and LncRNAs control the hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation and fibrosis has not yet been fully characterized. Here, we explored the role of antisense non‐coding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) and DNA methylation in HSC activation and fibrosis. The expression levels of DNA methyltransferases 3A (DNMT3A), ANRIL, α‐Smooth muscle actin (α‐SMA), Type I collagen (Col1A1), adenosine monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) and p‐AMPK in rat and human liver fibrosis were detected by immunohistochemistry, qRT‐PCR and Western blotting. Liver tissue histomorphology was examined by haematoxylin and eosin (H&E), Sirius red and Masson staining. HSC was transfected with DNMT3A‐siRNA, over‐expressing ANRIL and down‐regulating ANRIL. Moreover, cell proliferation ability was examined by CCK‐8, MTT and cell cycle assay. Here, our study demonstrated that ANRIL was significantly decreased in activated HSC and liver fibrosis tissues, while Col1A1, α‐SMA and DNMT3A were significantly increased in activated HSC and liver fibrosis tissues. Further, we found that down‐regulating DNMT3A expression leads to inhibition of HSC activation. Reduction in DNMT3A elevated ANRIL expression in activated HSC. Furthermore, we performed the over expression ANRIL suppresses HSC activation and AMPK signalling pathways. In sum, our study found that epigenetic DNMT3A silencing of ANRIL enhances liver fibrosis and HSC activation through activating AMPK pathway. Targeting epigenetic modulators DNMT3A and ANRIL, and offer a novel approach for liver fibrosis therapy. 相似文献
