Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have attracted considerable attention recently due to their involvement in numerous key cellular processes and in the development of various disorders. New high-throughput methods enable their study on a genome-wide scale. Numerous lncRNAs have been identified and characterized as important members of the biological regulatory network, with significant roles in regulating gene expression at the epigenetic, transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. This paper summarizes the diverse mechanisms of action of these lncRNAs and looks at the study strategies in this field. A major challenge in future study is to establish more effective bioinformatics and experimental methods to explore the functions, detailed mechanisms of action and structures deciding the functional diversity of lncRNAs, since the vast majority remain unresolved.
