| Abstract: | In recent years, some of the physiological and pathophysiological roles of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been discovered. These discoveries have been pivotal in providing insight on the basis of various diseases where ncRNAs are aberrantly expressed. Moreover, they are being studied in translational research to use these mechanisms for ‘non-coding RNA based therapy’. The main players being investigated in non-coding RNA-based therapies include antisense oligonucleotides, locked nucleic acid anti-miRs, miRNA sponges, miRNA mimics, siRNAs and ribozymes. |
