Expression profile and potential functions of circulating long noncoding RNAs in acute ischemic stroke in the Southern Chinese Han population

ABSTRACT: Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been confirmed to be associated with ischemic stroke (IS); however, their involvement still needs to be extensively explored. Therefore, we aimed to study the expression profile of lncRNAs and the potential roles and mechanisms of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in the Southern Chinese Han population. Methods: lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in AIS were analyzed using high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and validated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment and network analyses were performed to predict the functions and interactions of the aberrantly expressed genes. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of lncRNAs in AIS. Results: RNA-Seq analysis showed that 428 lncRNAs and 957 mRNAs were significantly upregulated, while 791 lncRNAs and 4263 mRNAs were downregulated in patients with AIS when compared with healthy controls. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses of differentially expressed genes showed that the apoptosis, inflammatory, oxidative and calcium signaling pathways were potentially implicated in AIS pathology. The PCR results showed that the selected lncRNA-C14orf64 and lncRNA-AC136007.2 were significantly downregulated in AIS. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) values of lncRNA-C14orf64 and lncRNA-AC136007.2 between AIS and healthy controls were 0.74 and 0.94, respectively. Conclusion: This study provides evidence of altered expression of lncRNAs and their potential functions in AIS. Our findings may facilitate pathological mechanistic studies of lncRNAs in AIS and provide potential diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for AIS.

Project description:Purpose: This study aimed to explore the differential expression profiles of exosomal lncRNAs and evaluated their potential utility in the accurate diagnosis of LAA stroke. Methods: LncRNA profiles of exosomes in large artery atherosclerosis stroke and controls were generated by high-throughput sequencing. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with Hisat2, Trapnell, STAR. qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assays. Results: A total of 1020 differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified in LAA stroke patients. GO and KEGG pathway analyses indicated that their target genes are involved in atherosclerosis-related pathways, including inflammation, cell adhesion, and cell migration. 8 exosomal lncRNAs were confirmed with qRT–PCR.The result showed that the expression trend of differential expressed lncRNAs in validation was consistent with RNA-seq.Conclusion: Our study showed the differential expression of lncRNAs in plasma exosomes and presented related diagnostic potential for LAA stroke for the first time. The results suggested that exosomal lncRNA could be potential diagnostic tools in LAA stroke. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), novel endogenous noncoding RNAs, play diverse roles in ischemic stroke. Recently, the abundance and stability of circRNAs in exosomes have been identified. However, a comprehensive analysis of exosomal circRNAs in large artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke has not yet been reported. We performed RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to comprehensively identify differentially expressed exosomal circRNAs in five paired LAA and normal controls. RNA-Seq identified a total of 462 circRNAs in peripheral exosomes; there were 25 differentially expressed circRNAs among them. Additionally, circRNA competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network and translatable analysis revealed the potential functions of the exosomal circRNAs in LAA progression. Two ceRNA pathways involving 5 circRNAs, 2 miRNAs, and 3 mRNAs were confirmed by qRT-PCR. In the validation cohort, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis identified two circRNAs as possible novel biomarkers, and a logistic model combining two and four circRNAs increased the area under the curve compared with the individual circRNAs.
