Abstract
- Long non-coding RNA Small Nucleolar RNA Host Gene 16 (SNHG16) has been reported to participate in Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory pathway, which contributes to pneumonia. This study was therefore conducted to explore the role of SNHG16 in pneumonia. In this study, expression of SNHG16 and microRNA (miR)-210 in pneumonia plasma samples (n = 56) and control samples (n = 60) was detected by RT-qPCR. The potential crosstalk between SNHG16 and miR-210 was analyzed by performing overexpression experiments. MSP was performed to study the role of SNHG16 in methylation of miR-210 gene. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by cell apoptosis assay. Decreased expression levels of SNHG16 and increased expression levels of miR-210 were observed in pneumonia. SNHG16 showed an inverse correlation to miR-210. LPS treatment led to downregulated SNHG16 and upregulated miR-210 in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells (HBEpCs). In HBEpCs, SNHG16 downregulated miR-210 and increased miR-210 DNA gene methylation. Moreover, SNHG16 suppressed the role of miR-210 in cell apoptosis under LPS treatment. In conclusion, SNHG16 is downregulated in pneumonia, and it downregulates miR-210 possibly through methylation to promote lung cell apoptosis induced by LPS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
