Regulation and mechanism of lncRNA H19 in autoimmune diseases.

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a type of non-protein-coding RNA with a length of at least 200 nucleotides. Existing evidence shows that lncRNA affects the growth and development of humans and the occurrence of diseases through various mechanisms, and plays an irreplaceable role in the differentiation and activation of immune cells and the development process of autoim-mune diseases. In recent years, lncRNA H19 has been found to play a unique regulatory function in pathological processes related to autoimmune diseases, such as inflammation and fibrosis. Therefore, the molecular mechanism involved in H19 is expected to become a potential target for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. In this review, we discussed the related mechanisms of H19 involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases based on the known functions of H19 and summarized the research results of H19 in several common autoimmune diseases.
