November 2025 in “Clinical and Experimental Medicine” This review highlights the emerging role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in dermatology, suggesting that lncRNAs significantly impact signaling pathways involved in normal skin functions and skin diseases, offering potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
July 2023 in “Frontiers in veterinary science” In this study, researchers analyzed skin samples from Dorper sheep to identify 395 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) linked to hair follicle growth phases, suggesting these lncRNAs may play a role in the regulation of hair shedding through pathways like estrogen and PI3K-Akt signaling.
