Exploration of the involvement of LncRNA in HIV-associated encephalitis using bioinformatics.

ABSTRACT:

Background

HIV-associated encephalitis (HIVE) is one of the common complications of HIV infection, and the pathogenesis of HIVE remains unclear, while lncRNA might be involved it. In this study, we made re-annotation on the expression profiling from the HIVE study in the public database, identified the lncRNA that might be involved in HIVE, and explored the possible mechanism.

Methods

In the GEO public database, the microarray expression profile (GSE35864) of three regions of brain tissues (white matter, frontal cortex and basal ganglia brain tissues) was chosen, updated annotation was performed to construct the non-cording-RNA (ncRNA) microarray data. Morpheus was used to identify the differential expressed ncRNA, and Genbank of NCBI was used to identify lncRNAs. The StarBa
