ABSTRACT: Background
Periodontitis is a prevalent oral inflammatory disease, which can cause periodontal ligament to a local hypoxia environment. However, the mechanism of hypoxia associated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in periodontitis is still largely unknown.Methods
Microarray was performed to detect the expression patterns of lncRNAs in 3 pairs of gingival tissues from patients with periodontitis and healthy controls. The expression of lncRNA 01126 (LINC01126), miR-518a-5p and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in periodontal tissues and in human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) under hypoxia was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction or western blot. Fluorescence in situ hybridization and cell fraction assay were performed to determine the s
