Abstract
Airway epithelium cells are the first line of defense against airborne allergens. When cultured, epithelial cells can be exposed to various allergens, providing an ideal model to investigate allergic disorders. This study sought to characterize the profile of long noncoding (lnc) RNAs, which can regulate gene expression and exert functions in diverse cellular processes, in airway epithelial cells exposed to house dust mite allergens. NCI-H292 cells were exposed to house dust mite extract for 24 h. RNA expression was profiled in exposed and unexposed cells. There were 270 lncRNAs that were differentially expressed (fold change ≥ 2, P < 0.05) in NCI-H292 cells after stimulation with Dermatophagoides farinae (house dust mite) extracts. Furthermore, 119 lncRNAs and 22 messenger RNAs were co-expressed. Gene Ontology analysis showed that these under-regulated and up-regulated lncRNAs were associated with biological process, cellular component, and molecular function. After bioinformatic analysis of significantly regulated signaling pathways, we found these lncRNAs may target 16 gene pathways, including glycolysis, axon guidance, ErbB signaling, and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signaling. The identification of differentially regulated lncRNAs in NCI-H292 cells after stimulation with Dermatophagoides farinae extracts, as well as their target gene pathways, can provide insight to the etiology and pathogenesis of allergy.
