Long non-coding RNA expression profiles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with coronary artery disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of death and often presents as a complex systemic disease. The aim of the presents study was to determine the expression profiles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of CAD patients and controls.

Methods

The lncRNA expression profiling of PBMC obtained from 40 CAD patients and 10 non-obstructive coronary atherosclerosis (NOCA) subjects were analyzed using the Illumina Hiseq 4000 sequencer. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to validate the differentially expressed lncRNAs. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses of mRNA were conducted to predict biologic functions.
