Abstract: Recent studies have revealed epigenetics plays an important role in the regulation of gene expression, including DNA methylation, chromatin modification and remodeling, multiple activities of non-coding RNA, and RNA methylation. The update of RNA-related epigenetics of melanomas is reviewed in this paper.

Key words: melanoma, epigenetics, non-coding RNA
