Abstract:

Non-coding RNA (ncRNA)is a class of RNA with a few or no capacity of protein synthesis. It includes microRNA (miRNA)and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). MiRNA is the shortest ncRNA expressed aberrantly in solid and hematopoietic malignancies,where it plays a pivotal function as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. LncRNA has been shown to be expressed aberrantly in cancer tissue and to be involved in oncogenic or tumor suppressive process in mammalian and human. This review mainly describes the biological function and potential therapeutic role of ncRNA as drug or target.

Key words: Non-coding RNA, Multiple myeloma, Pathology, Biomarker, Therapy
