During recent years it has been discovered that long non-coding RNAs are important
regulators in many biological processes. In this review, we summarize the role of lncRNA in
erythropoiesis. LncRNA are crucial for regulation of gene expression during both
proliferation and differentiation stages of red blood cell development. Many are regulated by
erythroidspecific transcription factors and some are expressed in a developmental stage-
specific manner. The majority of individually studied lncRNAs are involved in regulating the …
