Advances in Noncoding RNA Diagnostics and Therapeutics in Immunity and Cancer offers an in-depth exploration of the pivotal role noncoding RNAs play in immune-mediated diseases and various cancers. This essential volume provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how noncoding RNAs influence immune responses, drive inflammation, and contribute to cancer progression. By presenting the latest research on noncoding RNA mechanisms, interactions, and functions, the book positions these molecules as promising biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Researchers and clinicians will find valuable insights into the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of noncoding RNAs within this rapidly evolving field.
Beyond foundational concepts, the book discusses subjects such as the role of virus-encoded microRNAs in immune evasion, therapeutic applications in hepatocellular carcinoma, and the impact of microRNAs on periodontal inflammation. It further examines how miRNAs and lncRNAs regulate the tumor microenvironment, the functions of tumor-derived exosomes, and the panorama of noncoding RNA in prostate cancer.
