Targeting long noncoding RNAs in neuroblastoma: Progress and prospects

Abstract

Neuroblastoma (NB) is the third most prevalent tumor that mostly influences infants and young children. Although different treatments have been developed for the treatment of NB, high-risk patients have been reported to have low survival rates. Currently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have shown an attractive potential in cancer research and a party of investigations have been performed to understand mechanisms underlying tumor development through lncRNA dysregulation. Researchers have just newly initiated to exhibit the involvement of lncRNAs in NB pathogenesis. In this review article, we tried to clarify the point we stand with respect to the involvement of lncRNAs in NB. Moreover, implications for the pathologic roles of lncRNAs in the development of NB have been discussed. It seems that some of these lncRNAs have promising potential to be applied as biomarkers for NB prognosis and treatment.

Keywords: biomarkers; lncRNA; neuroblastoma; prognosis.
