Summary:

The book serves as a comprehensive resource for scientists and clinicians studying the role of non-coding RNAs in inflammation (viral infections, wound inflammation), human inflammatory diseases (i.e. rheumatoid arthritis, Crohnℓ́ℓs disease, diabetes), and innate immunity. It provides a universal reference work comprising both basic and specialized information. Given that ncRNAs represent new therapeutic targets, this volume will also be of interest to industrial biomedical researchers and those involved in drug development.

Contents:

The biology of microRNA

The biology of long non-coding RNA

microRNA regulation of neutrophil function

How non-coding RNAs contribute to macrophage polarization

Endogenous control of dendritic cell activation by miRNA

Noncoding RNA expression during viral infection: the long and the short of it

Wound inflammation: emerging role of miRNA

The importance of microRNAs in rheumatoid arthritis

MicroRNAs with impact on adipose tissue inflammation in obesity

The relationship between miR-29, NOD2 and Crohn?s disease

The role of ncRNA in diabetes

ncRNA as diagnostics and prognostics for hepatocellular carcinoma.
