Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of α-synuclein and the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. Although the molecular bases for PD development are not fully recognized, extensive evidence has suggested that the development of PD is strongly associated with neuroinflammation. It is noteworthy that while neuroinflammation might not be a primary factor in all patients with PD, it seems to be a driving force for disease progression, and therefore, exploring the role of pathways involved in neuroinflammation is of great importance. Besides, the importance of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), has been widely studied with a focus on the pathogenesis of PD. However, there is no comprehensive review regarding the role of neuroinflammation- related ncRNAs as prospective biomarkers and therapeutic targets involved in the pathogenesis of PD, even though the number of studies connecting ncRNAs to neuroinflammatory pathways and oxidative stress has markedly increased in the last few years. Hence, the present narrative review intended to describe the crosstalk between regulatory ncRNAs and neuroinflammatory targets with respect to PD to find and propose novel combining biomarkers or therapeutic targets in clinical settings.
帕金森病(PD)是一种常见的神经退行性疾病,其特征是α-突触核蛋白的积累和黑质中多巴胺能神经元的退化。尽管 PD 发展的分子基础尚未完全被认识,但大量证据表明 PD 的发展与神经炎症密切相关。值得注意的是,虽然神经炎症可能不是所有 PD 患者的主要因素,但它似乎是疾病进展的驱动力,因此,探索涉及神经炎症的途径的作用非常重要。此外,非编码 RNA(ncRNAs)的重要性,如 microRNAs(miRNAs)、长非编码 RNA(lncRNAs)和竞争性内源 RNA(ceRNAs),已经被广泛研究,重点是 PD 的发病机制。然而,尽管近年来将 ncRNAs 与神经炎症途径和氧化应激联系起来的研究数量显著增加,但仍没有关于神经炎症相关 ncRNAs 作为 PD 发病机制中潜在生物标志物和治疗靶点的综合综述。因此,本综述旨在描述调节性 ncRNAs 与 PD 神经炎症靶点之间的相互作用,以发现和提出临床中新型联合生物标志物或治疗靶点。
