Abstract

Diabetes is one of the most frequently occurring metabolic disorders, affecting almost one tenth of the global population. Despite advances in antihyperglycemic therapeutics, the management of diabetes is limited due to its complexity and associated comorbidities, including diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy and diabetic retinopathy. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), are involved in the regulation of gene expression as well as various disease pathways in humans. Several ncRNAs are dysregulated in diabetes and are responsible for modulating the expression of various genes that contribute to the ‘symptom complex’ in diabetes. We review various miRNAs and lncRNAs implicated in diabetes and delineate ncRNA biological networks as well as key ncRNA targets in diabetes. Further, we discuss the spatial regulation of ncRNAs and their role(s) as prognostic markers in diabetes. We also shed light on the molecular mechanisms of signal transduction with diabetes-associated ncRNAs and ncRNA-mediated epigenetic events. Lastly, we summarize clinical trials on diabetes-associated ncRNAs and discuss the functional relevance of the dysregulated ncRNA interactome in diabetes. This knowledge will facilitate the identification of putative biomarkers for the therapeutic management of diabetes and its comorbidities. Taken together, the elucidation of the architecture of signature ncRNA regulatory networks in diabetes may enable the identification of novel biomarkers in the discovery pipeline for diabetes, which may lead to better management of this metabolic disorder.
