Scope & Guideline
Innovating the Future of Genomic Research
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Exploration of Non-Coding RNA Functions:
Research articles delve into the diverse roles of various types of non-coding RNAs, including long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), in gene regulation, cellular processes, and disease mechanisms. - Clinical Applications and Biomarker Discovery:
The journal emphasizes the potential of ncRNAs as clinical biomarkers for disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment monitoring, particularly in cancer and metabolic disorders. - Epigenetic and Post-Transcriptional Regulation:
Studies often focus on the epigenetic mechanisms and post-transcriptional modifications that influence ncRNA expression and function, providing insights into their regulatory roles in various physiological and pathological contexts. - Integration of Multi-Omics Approaches:
Research frequently employs multi-omics strategies to investigate the interplay between ncRNAs and other molecular entities (e.g., mRNAs, proteins), enhancing the understanding of complex biological networks. - Innovative Methodologies in RNA Research:
The journal publishes articles that introduce novel experimental and computational techniques for studying ncRNAs, including RNA sequencing, bioinformatics tools, and CRISPR-based approaches.
Trending and Emerging
- Therapeutic Targeting of Non-Coding RNAs:
There is a growing interest in developing therapeutic strategies that target specific ncRNAs, particularly in cancer treatment, indicating their potential as novel therapeutic agents. - Role of Non-Coding RNAs in Disease Mechanisms:
Increased attention is being paid to the role of ncRNAs in various diseases, particularly in cancer, metabolic disorders, and autoimmune diseases, underscoring their importance in pathogenesis. - Bioinformatics and Computational Approaches:
The integration of bioinformatics tools and machine learning techniques to analyze ncRNA data is on the rise, facilitating the identification of ncRNA interactions and regulatory networks. - Extracellular Vesicle-Associated Non-Coding RNAs:
Research on the role of ncRNAs in extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes) is gaining traction, highlighting their potential as biomarkers and mediators of intercellular communication. - Circular RNAs in Health and Disease:
Circular RNAs are increasingly recognized for their regulatory roles, leading to a surge in research focused on their functions and implications in various diseases.
Declining or Waning
- Basic Mechanistic Studies on ncRNAs:
There seems to be a reduction in purely mechanistic studies that focus on the basic biology of ncRNAs without immediate clinical relevance, as more research is directed towards translational applications. - Studies on Non-Coding RNAs in Non-Human Models:
Research involving non-human models (e.g., plants, lower organisms) has decreased, possibly as focus shifts towards human health and disease implications of ncRNAs. - Exploratory Studies on Less Characterized ncRNAs:
The exploration of lesser-known or newly discovered non-coding RNAs appears to be waning, with a greater emphasis now on well-characterized ncRNAs that have established roles in diseases.
