The Non-Coding RNAs Involved in Physiology and Pathology of Skin Melanocyte and Melanoma

Journal Title: International Journal of Zoology and Animal Biology - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 6

Abstract

The non-coding RNAs consist of the major of transcripts in genome in higher plants and animals, and they modulate gene expression at multiple levels to affect the growth, development, physiology, and disease in organisms. Recent findings demonstrate that the non-coding RNAs play important roles in physiology and pathology of melanocyte and melanoma. We reviewed the progress in non-coding RNAs (microRNA and long non-coding RNA) involved in pigmentation to provide insights into the melanocyte and melanoma biology.
