LncRNA profiling in NCI-H292 cells after stimulation with Dermatophagoides farinae extracts.

ABSTRACT: Airway epithelium cells are the first line of defense against airborne allergens. When cultured, epithelial cells can be exposed to various allergens, providing an ideal model to investigate allergic disorders. This study sought to characterize the profile of long noncoding (lnc) RNAs, which can regulate gene expression and exert functions in diverse cellular processes, in airway epithelial cells exposed to house dust mite allergens. NCI-H292 cells were exposed to house dust mite extract for 24 h. RNA expression was profiled in exposed and unexposed cells. There were 270 lncRNAs that were differentially expressed (fold change ≥ 2, P < 0.05) in NCI-H292 cells after stimulation with Dermatophagoides farinae (house dust mite) extracts. Furthermore, 119 lncRNAs and 22 messenger RNAs were co-ex
