Abstract
To summarize the regulatory role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in peripheral nerve injury (PNI) and neural regeneration. The characteristics and mechanisms of lncRNA were summarized and its regulatory role in PNI and neural regeneration were elaborated by referring to relevant domestic and foreign literature in recent years. Neuropathic pain and denervated muscle atrophy are common complications of PNI, affecting patients' quality of life. Numerous lncRNAs are upregulated after PNI, which promote the progress of neuropathic pain by regulating nerve excitability and neuroinflammation. Several lncRNAs are found to promote the progress of denervated muscle atrophy. Importantly, peripheral nerve regeneration occurs after PNI. LncRNAs promote peripheral nerve regeneration through promoting neuronal axonal outgrowth and the proliferation and migration of Schwann cells. At present, the research on lncRNA regulating PNI and neural regeneration is still in its infancy. The specific mechanism remains to be further explored. How to achieve clinical translation of experimental results is also a major challenge for future research.
