Whole Transcriptome Mapping Identifies an Immune- and Metabolism-Related Non-coding RNA Landscape Remodeled by Mechanical Stress in IL-1β-Induced Rat OA-like Chondrocytes.

ABSTRACT: Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease. The aims of this study are to explore the effects of mechanical stress on whole transcriptome landscape and to identify a non-coding transcriptome signature of mechanical stress. Methods: Next-generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed on IL-1β-induced OA-like chondrocytes stimulated by mechanical stress. Integrated bioinformatics analysis was performed and further verified by experimental validations. Results: A total of 5,022 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEMs), 88 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMIs), 1,259 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs), and 393 differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs) were identified as the transcriptome response to mechanical stress.
