Chronic kidney disease （CKD） is a common disease with high morbidity and mortality. Increasing evidence has indicated that programmed cell death （PCD） plays a significant role in the pathogenesis and progression of CKD. Non-coding RNA （ncRNA）， defined as a category of RNA that lacks coding potential， has emerged as a pivotal regulator of gene expression. This regulatory function of ncRNA extends to various biological processes， including PCD. This paper reviews the recent advances on the involvement of ncRNAs in the regulation of apoptosis， autophagy， pyroptosis， ferroptosis， necroptosis， and PANoptosis in CKD. It explores the crosstalk between different pathways and categorizes therapeutic strategies targeting ncRNA regulation of PCD into three main areas： the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine， tissue engineering technologies， and drugs. The objective of this study is to identify novel therapeutic targets and strategies for clinical treatment.
