01

Overview

Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 487 (LINC00487) is a long non-coding RNA gene located at chromosome 2 in humans and characterized by its lack of protein-coding potential[1][3][5]. LINC00487 participates in key regulatory networks affecting immune signaling, cell adhesion, epigenetic regulation, and immune cell activation[2][4]. It has been identified as a protective factor in hepatocellular carcinoma and serves as a prognostic biomarker in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, where its expression is associated with favorable outcome[4]. LINC00487 is also involved in the gene-regulatory processes relevant for systemic lupus erythematosus and other immune-related pathologies[2]. It is not currently recognized as a direct therapeutic target, nor are there approved drugs that interact with it[1][3][5].
