Role of long non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs in kawasaki disease: a systematic review

Pediatr Rheumatol Online JPublished Systematic review

Authors' conclusion

Both linear lncRNAs and circRNAs play critical roles in unraveling the mechanisms underlying KD, contributing to biomarker identification and potential therapeutic advances.
