Bioinformatics Analysis of the Inflammation-Associated lncRNA-mRNA Coexpression Network in Type 2 Diabetes
JOURNAL OF THE RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN-ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM(2023)
Abstract
Introduction. Diabetes is a chronic inflammatory state, and a key role of lncRNAs in diabetes complications is a new area of research. Methods. In this study, key lncRNAs related to diabetes inflammation were identified by RNA-chip mining and lncRNA-mRNA coexpression network construction and finally verified by RT-qPCR. Results. We ultimately obtained 12 genes, including A1BG-AS1, AC084125.4, RAMP2-AS1, FTX, DBH-AS1, LOXL1-AS1, LINC00893, LINC00894, PVT1, RUSC1-AS1, HCG25, and ATP1B3-AS1. RT-qPCR assays verified that LOXL1-AS1, A1BG-AS1, FTX, PVT1, and HCG25 were upregulated in the HG+LPS-induced THP-1 cells, and LINC00893, LINC00894, RUSC1-AS1, DBH-AS1, and RAMP2-AS1 were downregulated in the HG+LPS-induced THP-1 cells. Conclusions. lncRNAs and mRNAs are extensively linked and form a coexpression network, and lncRNAs may influence the development of type 2 diabetes by regulating the corresponding mRNAs. The ten key genes obtained may become biomarkers of inflammation in type 2 diabetes in the future.
