RNA binding proteins: Mechanistic considerations and perspectives in controlling cardiovascular diseases

Le résumé fourni par la source

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are becoming serious disease that endangering human health due to the increasing morbidity and mortality, and many molecular targets are involved in this complex pathologic process. Recently, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have received potential attention as a promising targets for preventing CVDs, including myocardial hypertrophy, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), myocardial fibrosis, and pulmonary hypertension (PH). As important regulators of RNA metabolism, RBPs play important roles in all steps of the gene expression cascade,and affect the occurrence and development of various diseases. In this review, we discuss the regulatory role of RBPs on various CVDs at the post transcriptional modification level based on current research. We also highlight the existing and potential RNA-based therapeutics that could impact future CVD treatments.
