Summary: Cell senescence plays critical roles in various aspects of organism life, including tissue development, homeostasis, tumor suppression, and aging-related diseases. Oxidative stress, caused by inadequate detoxification of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, is a major driver of senescence. Non-coding RNAs, such as microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs, and circular RNAs, are important regulators of cellular processes, including oxidative stress responses and senescence.

Summary: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been extensively studied over the past two decades, but many questions about their regulation and characteristics remain unanswered. Understanding the signaling pathways of CSCs may provide insights into the mechanisms involved. Non-coding RNAs, especially long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), have recently been found to play important roles in the modulation of CSC signaling pathways and tumor properties.

Summary: Breast cancer is a major global health challenge, and investigating the molecular mechanisms involved in its progression can lead to improved therapeutic and diagnostic strategies. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in regulating cytokine and growth factor-dependent signaling pathways in breast tumor cells. This review discusses the oncogenic role of lncRNAs in promoting PI3K/AKT, MAPK, and TGF-β signaling pathways in breast cancer and suggests lncRNA inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy to reduce tumor growth and as reliable diagnostic markers in breast cancer patients.

Summary: Colorectal cancer is a prevalent malignancy and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are dysregulated in colorectal cancer and have been found to modulate the expression of the p53 gene, a crucial tumor suppressor gene involved in various cellular processes. Understanding the interaction between lncRNAs and the p53 pathway in colorectal cancer has important implications for carcinogenesis, tumor progression, and therapeutic resistance.

Summary: Non-coding RNAs, such as microRNAs, circular RNAs, and long non-coding RNAs, play important roles in regulating normal biological processes and may be implicated in the pathogenesis of human diseases like depression. Clinical studies have shown that abnormal expression of ncRNAs in depressed patients compared to healthy individuals, with potential for ncRNAs to serve as biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment. Despite uncertainties regarding their precise roles, ncRNAs demonstrate promising clinical value in the management of depression.
