- Abstract
The Ras homolog (Rho) family of small GTPases comprise several proteins with prominent roles in regulation of cell cycle transition, cell migration, and remodeling of actin cytoskeleton. Expression of these proteins is regulated by several factors among them are long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). The impact of lncRNAs on Rho GTPases signaling can be exerted through direct modulation of expression of these proteins or influencing expression of miRNAs that negatively regulate Rho GTPases. LINC00974/miR-122/RhoA, MALAT1/miR-429/RhoA, ZFAS1/miR-3924/RhoA/ROCK2, PCAT6/miR-326/RhoA/ROCK, SMILR/miR-141/RhoA/ROCK, DAPK1/miR-182/RhoA, GAS5/miR663a/RhoB, H19/miR-15b/CDC42/PAK1, TDRG1/miR-93/RhoC, TUG1/miR-498/CDC42, UCA1/miR-18a/Cdc42 and UCA1/miR-182/Cdc42 are examples of lncRNAs/miRNAs axes that regulate Rho GTPases. In the present manuscript, we describe the role of lncRNAs on Rho GTPases., (Copyright © 2021 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.. All rights reserved.)
