Non-coding RNA Research

Scope

Non-coding RNA Research aims to publish high quality research and review articles on the mechanistic role of non-coding RNAs in all human diseases. This interdisciplinary journal will welcome research dealing with all aspects of non-coding RNAs-their biogenesis, regulation and role in disease progression. The focus of this journal will be to publish translational studies as well as well-designed basic studies with translational and clinical implications. The non-coding RNAs of particular interest will be microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), U-RNAs/small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), exosomal/extracellular RNAs (exRNAs), Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs. Topics of interest will include, but not limited to: -Regulation of non-coding RNAs -Targets and regulatory functions of non-coding RNAs -Epigenetics and non-coding RNAs -Biological functions of non-coding RNAs -Non-coding RNAs as biomarkers -Non-coding RNA-based therapeutics -Prognostic value of non-coding RNAs -Pharmacological studies involving non-coding RNAs -Population based and epidemiological studies -Gene expression / proteomics / computational / pathway analysis-based studies on non-coding RNAs with functional validation -Novel strategies to manipulate non-coding RNAs expression and function -Clinical studies on evaluation of non-coding RNAs The journal will strive to disseminate cutting edge research, showcasing the ever-evolving importance of non-coding RNAs in modern day research and medicine.
