Cardiovascular disease is still the leading cause of death globally. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are crucial in regulating gene expression and have potential as therapeutic targets for various diseases. Despite the significant attention received from researchers in recent years, there is still much to be understood regarding non-coding RNA biology, gene regulation mechanisms, and its potential role in disease development and treatment. In this collection, we welcome researchers to submit their original research and review articles that aim to provide understanding of the rapidly advancing field of non-coding RNAs in cardiovascular system, including investigations into mechanisms, as well as the development of non-coding RNA-based diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
