Apoptosis is a coordinated cellular process that occurs in several physiological situations. Dysregulation of apoptosis has been documented in numerous pathological situations, particularly cancer. Non-coding RNAs regulate apoptosis different mechanisms. Lung cancer is among neoplastic conditions in which the role of non-coding RNAs in the regulation of apoptosis has been investigated. Non-coding RNAs that regulate apoptosis in lung cancer have functional interactions with PI3K/Akt, PTEN, GSK-3β, NF-κB, Bcl-2, Bax, p53, mTOR and other important cancer-related pathways. Globally, over-expression of apoptosis-blocking non-coding RNAs has been associated with poor prognosis of patients, while apoptosis-promoting ones have the opposite effect. In the current paper, we describe the impact of lncRNAs and miRNAs on cell apoptosis in lung cancer.
细胞凋亡是一种在多种生理情况下发生的协调细胞过程。细胞凋亡失调在许多病理情况下都有记录，尤其是在癌症中。非编码RNA通过不同机制调节细胞凋亡。肺癌是其中研究了非编码RNA在细胞凋亡调节中作用的肿瘤疾病之一。调节肺癌细胞凋亡的非编码RNA与PI3K/Akt、PTEN、GSK-3β、NF-κB、Bcl-2、Bax、p53、mTOR和其他重要的癌症相关通路存在功能相互作用。在全球范围内，抑制细胞凋亡的非编码RNA过表达与患者预后不良相关，而促进细胞凋亡的非编码RNA则有相反的作用。在本文中，我们描述了长链非编码RNA和微小RNA对肺癌细胞凋亡的影响。
