LncRNAs Landscape in the patients of primary gout by Microarray Analysis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To determine the expression profile and clinical significance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with primary gout and healthy control subjects. Human lncRNA microarrays were used to identify the differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in primary gout (n=6) and healthy subjects (n=6). Bioinformatics analyses were performed to predict the roles of differently expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was applied to validate the results in 64 gout patients, and 32 healthy control subjects (HC). The microarray analysis identified 1479 differentially expressed lncRNAs (879 up-regulated and 600 down-regulated), 862 differentially expressed mRNAs (390 up-regulated and 472 down-regulated) in primary gout (fold change>2, P<0.05), respectively. The bioinformatic analysis indicated that the differentially expressed lncRNAs regulated the abnormally expressed mRNAs, which were involved in the pathogenesis of gout through several different pathways. Significant association was observed between these lncRNAs and the Clinical inflammation indicators and lipid metabolism indicators. Our results provide novel insight into the mechanisms of primary gout, and reveal that ENST00000566457 and NR-026756 could effectively discriminate the gout group and the healthy control groups.
