Cancer has been a major public health problem that has threatened human life worldwide throughout history. The main causes that contribute to the poor prognosis of cancer are metastasis and recurrence. Cancer stem cells are a group of tumor cells that possess self-renewal and differentiation ability, which is a vital cause of cancer metastasis and recurrence. Long non-coding RNAs refer to a class of RNAs that are longer than 200 nt and have no potential to code proteins, some of which can be specifically expressed in different tissues and different tumors. Long non-coding RNAs have great biological significance in the occurrence and progression of cancers. However, how long non-coding RNAs interact with cancer stem cells and then affect cancer metastasis and recurrence is not yet clear. Therefore, this review aims to summarize recent studies that focus on how long non-coding RNAs impact tumor occurrence and progression by affecting cancer stem cell self-renewal and differentiation in liver cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, and glioma.
癌症一直是一个重大的公共卫生问题，有史以来在全球范围内威胁着人类生命。导致癌症预后不良的主要原因是转移和复发。癌症干细胞是一群具有自我更新和分化能力的肿瘤细胞，这是癌症转移和复发的一个重要原因。长链非编码RNA是一类长度超过200个核苷酸且无编码蛋白质潜力的RNA，其中一些可以在不同组织和不同肿瘤中特异性表达。长链非编码RNA在癌症的发生和发展中具有重要的生物学意义。然而，长链非编码RNA如何与癌症干细胞相互作用，进而影响癌症转移和复发尚不清楚。因此，本综述旨在总结近期的研究，这些研究聚焦于长链非编码RNA如何通过影响肝癌、前列腺癌、乳腺癌和神经胶质瘤中癌症干细胞的自我更新和分化来影响肿瘤的发生和发展。
