ABSTRACT: Studies have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can be widely involved in various physiological and pathological processes. In recent years, there have been many studies on GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) regulating islet β cells function and mass of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients. However, the function of lncRNAs in this process have not been fully elucidated. In this study, lncRNA microarray was used to identify the differently expressed (DE) lncRNAs and mRNAs in β cells exposed to Geniposide, which is a GLP-1RA. 308 lncRNAs and 128 mRNAs were detected with a set filter fold change≥1.5 and P-value<0.05. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were performed to assess the underlying functions of DE mRNAs. Co-expression network of DE lncRNAs and mRNAs was constructed based on Pearson coefficient of expression level. And hub mRNAs were selected through String database and Cytoscape plugin Cytohubba. Additionally, a ceRNA network was constructed among the co-expressed lncRNAs and hub mRNAs. This study reveals key mRNAs involved in the regulation of GLP-1RA on β cells function and mass. More importantly, screening out lncRNAs that play an importance regulatory role in this process. This original research could provide valuable information for the further investigation between lncRNAs and GLP-AR in the protection of β cells.
