Elucidating the role of a shared lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network in exacerbating Parkinson's disease symptoms in the ... - EurekAlert


<p>Parkinson&rsquo;s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder with unclear molecular mechanisms. Noncoding RNAs, such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), have been identified as critical regulators of gene expression. This study aimed to investigate the triple network of lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA, known as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), and to identify essential lncRNAs that regulate PD-related gene expression through their target miRNAs. The study also identified a common triple network between COVID-19 and PD that may contribute to exacerbating PD symptoms.</p> <p>https://www.xiahepublishing.com/1555-3884/GE-2023-00103</p>
