LncRNAs Landscape in the patients of primary gout by microarray analysis.

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 patients (n = 6) and healthy control 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 performed to detect the expression levels of 8 lnRNAs in 64 primary gout patients and 32 healthy control subjects. Spearman's correlation was used to analyze the correlation between these eight lncRNAs and the laboratory values of gout patients. A receiver operating
