ANRIL, a long non-coding RNA encoded in the human chromosome 9p21 region, interacts with multiple proteins and miRNAs to regulate gene expression. It plays important roles in cellular processes like cell cycle control and proliferation. Dysregulation of ANRIL has been associated with diseases like cancers and cardiovascular diseases. Understanding its oncogenic role and potential as a biomarker in cancer is crucial.
ANRIL (Antisense Noncoding RNA in the INK4 Locus), a long non-coding RNA encoded in the human chromosome 9p21 region, is a critical factor for regulating gene expression by interacting with multiple proteins and miRNAs. It has been found to play important roles in various cellular processes, including cell cycle control and proliferation. Dysregulation of ANRIL has been associated with several diseases like cancers and cardiovascular diseases, for instance. Understanding the oncogenic role of ANRIL and its potential as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in cancer is crucial. This review provides insights into the regulatory mechanisms and oncogenic significance of the 9p21 locus and ANRIL in cancer.
