Abstract

The long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), GAS5, has garnered significant attention recently for its multifaceted involvement in cellular processes, particularly within the context of diabetes. This comprehensive review delves into the intricate molecular interactions associated with GAS5 and their profound implications for understanding, diagnosing, and effectively managing diabetes mellitus. The article begins by highlighting the global prevalence of diabetes and the urgent need for innovative insights into its underlying mechanisms and therapeutic approaches. It introduces GAS5 as a crucial regulator of gene expression, with emerging significance in the context of diabetes-related processes. The core of this review unravels the regulatory network of GAS5 in diabetes, elucidating its impact on various aspects of the disease. It explores how GAS5 influences insulin signaling pathways, glucose metabolism, and the function of β-cells, shedding light on its role in hyperglycemia and insulin resistance. Moreover, the article underscores the clinical relevance of GAS5's interactions by discussing their associations with different diabetes subtypes, predictive value, and potential applications as both diagnostic tools and therapeutic targets. It provides insights into ongoing research endeavours aimed at harnessing the potential of GAS5 for innovative disease management strategies, including the development of RNA-based therapeutics. Concluding with a forward-looking perspective, the abstract highlights the broader implications of GAS5 in the field of diabetes, such as its connection to diabetic complications and its potential for personalized approaches in disease management.
