Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are defined as transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides rarely translatable into protein, which distinguishes them from small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) such as miRNAs, siRNAs, piRNAs, snoRNAs exRNAs, (scaRNAs). Long intervening/intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) refer to lncRNA non-overlapped to protein-coding genes. In terms of abundance and specificity, ~30,000 lncRNAs have been identified in human tissues with ~ 10- fold lower abundance than mRNA. Near 80% of lncRNAs show tissue-specific features, in contrast to only less than 20% of mRNAs. In addition to tissue specificity, lncRNAs are also characterized by having significantly higher developmental stage specificity. Of the identified lncRNAs, although only a very small proportion have been validated to be biologically relevant, the emerging evidence has confirmed important regulatory functions at levels of transcription, post transcription, and epigenetic control. Physiologically, lncRNAs are involved in growth, development, reproduction, aging, and pathogenesis of disease initiation and progression, such as neurological disorders and cancers.
Artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine is rising, and it holds tremendous potential for more accurate findings and novel solutions to complicated medical issues. Biomedical AI has potential, especially in the context of precision medicine, in the healthcare industry’s next phase of development and advancement. Integration of AI research into precision medicine is the future; however, the human component must always be considered. Explainable Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging: Fundamentals and Applications focuses on the most recent developments in applying artificial intelligence and data science to health care and medical imaging. Explainable artificial intelligence is a well-s...
