Silicosis is a progressive pulmonary fibrosis disease caused by long-term inhalation of a large amount of free crystalline silica, which seriously threatens the health of relevant workers and causes a huge amount of disease burden. The pathogenesis of silicosis is complex and unclear, it has been reported that long non coding RNA (lncRNA) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of silicosis. In order to improve the understanding of the disease and provide directions for the prevention and treatment of silicosis, this article reviewed the mechanism of lncRNA in the pathogenesis and disease progression of silicosis.
