Abstract:
Environmental chemicals exposure is closely related to occurrence and development of diseases. The abnormal expression of non-coding RNAs is a key factor in biological effects of environmental chemicals. Non-coding RNAs play an important role in the normal function of cells and the occurrence and development of diseases. In addition, non-coding RNAs, as a biomarker, could be widely used in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases. This paper outlines the relationship between environmental chemical exposure and non-coding RNAs and the function and mechanism of non-coding RNAs. It also presents existing issues and future research directions.
