Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are a new class of small, non-coding RNAs, crucial in the regulation of gene expression. Recent research has revealed links between piRNAs, viral defense mechanisms, and certain human cancers. Due to their clinical pote...
Objective biomarkers are crucial for early diagnosis to promote treatment and raise survival rates for diseases. With the smallest non-coding RNAs-piwi-RNAs (piRNAs)-and their transcripts, we sought to identify if these piRNAs could be used as biomar...

Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are increasingly recognized as potential biomarkers for various diseases. Investig-ating the complex relationship between piRNAs and diseases through computational methods can reduce the costs and risks associated with ...
BACKGROUND: Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are well established for monitoring and protecting the genome from transposons in germline cells. Recently, numerous studies provided evidence that piRNAs also play important roles in regulating mRNA transcr...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Prior studies have shown that small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) are associated with cancer occurrence or development. Recently, a newly discovered class of small ncRNAs known as PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) have been found ...
BACKGROUND: Exploring piRNA-disease associations can help discover candidate diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Several computational methods have been presented for identifying associations between piRNAs and diseases. Howe...
