Abstract:
Abnormal expressions of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are associated with a variety of tumors.Recent studies show that lncRNA can regulate other epigenetic processes such as DNA methylation,histone modifications,chromatin remodeling and miRNA through various ways;on the other side,other epigenetic processes can influence the expression of lncRNA.The mutual regulation of them paly important roles in the occurrence and development of malignant tumors.The better understanding of the crosstalk between lncRNA and epigenetic modulation will contribute to clearly clarify the mechanism of tumor,which provides a theoretical basis for the anti-cancer therapies targeting lncRNAs.
