the retrovirus hervh is a Long Noncoding RNA required for human embryonic stem cell identity
Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2014Co-Authors: Xinyi Lu, Friedrich Sachs, Leeann Ramsay, Pierreetienne Jacques, Jonathan Goke, Guillaume Bourque, Huckhui NgAbstract:Human endogenous retrovirus subfamily H (HERVH) is a class of transposable elements expressed preferentially in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). A new study now shows that the Long terminal repeats of HERVH function as enhancers and that HERVH is a nuclear Long Noncoding RNA required to maintain hESC identity.

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2014Co-Authors: Friedrich Sachs, Leeann Ramsay, Pierreetienne Jacques, Jonathan Goke, Guillaume BourqueAbstract:Human endogenous retrovirus subfamily H (HERVH) is a class of transposable elements expressed preferentially in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Here, we report that the Long terminal repeats of HERVH function as enhancers and that HERVH is a nuclear Long Noncoding RNA required to maintain hESC identity. Furthermore, HERVH is associated with OCT4, coactivators and Mediator subunits. Together, these results uncover a new role of species-specific transposable elements in hESCs.

downregulation of a novel Long Noncoding RNA trpm2 as promotes apoptosis in non small cell lung cancer
Tumor Biology, 2017Co-Authors: Cheng Huang, Yingzhi Qin, Hongsheng Liu, Naixin Liang, Yeye ChenAbstract:Non-small cell lung cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, and the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer is still poor. Recent evidence has proved that Long Noncoding RNA is involved in tumorigenesis. For non-small cell lung cancer, the expression profile of Long Noncoding RNA has been studied. Here, we identified a novel Long Noncoding RNA TRPM2-AS from published dataset and found TRPM2-AS is widely upregulated in non-small cell lung cancer tissues compared with adjacent non-tumor tissues. Higher expression level of TRPM2-AS was correlated with higher TNM stages and larger tumor size. Patients with high TRPM2-AS expression level had poor survival than those with low TRPM2-AS level. We silenced TRPM2-AS by small interfering RNA and found that cell proliferation was significantly inhibited after knockdown of TRPM2-AS. Annexin V/propidium iodide staining and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling assay confirmed that cell apoptosis increased after TRPM2-AS knockdown. Further experiments showed that silence of TRPM2-AS upregulated SHC1 and silence of SHC1 partially reversed cell apoptosis after TRPM2-AS knockdown. In summary, the novel Long Noncoding RNA TRPM2-AS upregulated in non-small cell lung cancer, and downregulation of TRPM2-AS promotes apoptosis in vitro.

circulating Long Noncoding RNA lipcar predicts heart failure outcomes in patients without chronic kidney disease
Hypertension, 2019Co-Authors: Laura Santer, Begona Lopez, Susana Ravassa, Christian Baer, Isabelle Riedel, Shambhabi Chatterjee, Maria U MorenoAbstract:The plasma levels of Long Noncoding RNA LIPCAR are elevated in heart failure (HF) patients with reduced ejection fraction and associated with left ventricular remodeling and poor outcomes. We studi...
