title: Eukaryotic non-coding RNAs: new targets for diagnostics and therapeutics?
abstract: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in eukaryotes have recently developed to a very active research area in RNA biology, opening up new strategies for diagnosis and therapies of human disease. Here we introduce and describe the most important classes of eukaryotic ncRNAs: microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (IncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs). We further discuss new RNA-based diagnostic and therapeutic concepts.
