TLDR Non-coding RNAs are crucial for skin development and health.
The document discussed the significant roles of noncoding RNAs, particularly miRNAs and lncRNAs, in skin development, homeostasis, and various skin pathologies. miRNAs such as miR-203, miR-205, and miR-31 were crucial in regulating gene expression, keratinocyte differentiation, and hair follicle development, while lncRNAs like ANCR and TINCR were key regulators of epidermal differentiation. The research underscored the importance of these noncoding RNAs in maintaining skin health and their potential implications in skin disorders, highlighting their promise as therapeutic targets.
