Article Abstract

To investigate the relationships between LncRNA NNT-AS1, CRP, PCT and their interactions and the refractory mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in children. Serum levels of LncRNA NNT-AS1 of RMPP and non-RMPP (NRMPP) patients were detected by real-time PCR, and were analyzed together with serum c-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT). Correlations between LncRNA NNT-AS1 and CRP and PCT were analyzed by Pearson correlation test. The ROC curve was used to analyze the potential of LncRNA NNT-AS1, CRP and PCT as biomarkers for predicting RMPP. Logistic regression crossover model and the Excel compiled by Andersson et al. were used to analyze the interactions among the biomarkers. We found that LncRNA NNT-AS1, CRP and PCT were all highly expressed in patients with RMPP. LncRNA NNT-AS1 could positively correlate with the expressions of CRP and PCT, and jointly promote the occurrence of RMPP. The combined diagnosis of LncRNA NNT-AS1, CRP and PCT could predict the occurrence of RMPP.

Background: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) NNT-AS1 is involved in the progression of various lung and inflammatory diseases, and has been reported to be upregulated in patients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP). However, its role in MPP progression remains largely unknown.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the function and underlying mechanism of action for lncRNA NNT-AS1 in MPP.

Sepsis is a serious infectious disease that may lead to a systemic inflammatory and life-threatening condition. Early diagnosis and treatment of sepsis is important to prevent organ failure and reduce mortality. This paper investigated the expression of long non-coding RNA NNT-AS1 (lncRNA NNT-AS1) in sepsis and its relationship the development of the disease, and revealed the clinical potential of NNT-AS1 in the diagnosis and prognosis of sepsis.

It is metabolic and signaling crosstalk between stromal cells and tumors in the tumor microenvironment, which influences several aspects of tumor formation and drug resistance, including metabolic reprogramming. Despite considerable findings linking lncRNAs in HIF-1-related regulatory networks to cancer cell, little emphasis has been given to the role in communication between cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and tumor cells. Previously, we observed that NNT-AS1 was substantially expressed in CAFs cells and CAFs exosomes, and subsequently investigated the influence of CAFs exosomal NNT-AS1 on glucose metabolism, proliferation, and metastasis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells.
