Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) could regulate chemoresistance through sponging microRNAs (miRNAs) and sequestering RNA binding proteins. However, the mechanism of lncRNAs in rituximab resistance in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is largely unknown. Here, we investigated the functions and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA CHROMR in DLBCL tumorigenesis and chemoresistance. LncRNA CHROMR is highly expressed in DLBCL tissues and cells. We examined the oncogenic functions of lncRNA CHROMR in DLBCL by a panel of gain-or-loss-of-function assays and in vitro experiments. LncRNA CHROMR suppression promotes CD20 transcription in DLBCL cells and inhibits rituximab resistance. RNA immunoprecipitation, RNA pull-down, and dual luciferase reporter assay reveal that lncRNA CHROMR sponges with miR-27b-3p to regulate mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) levels and Akt signaling in DLBCL cells. Targeting the lncRNA CHROMR/miR-27b-3p/MET axis reduces DLBCL tumorigenesis. Altogether, these findings provide a new regulatory model, lncRNA CHROMR/miR-27b-3p/MET, which can serve as a potential therapeutic target for DLBCL.

is a primate-specific long noncoding RNA with emerging roles in homeostasis and pathophysiology. Elevated blood levels of have been observed in patients with cardiovascular disease and several cancers, where it is correlated with poor clinical outcomes. Like many lncRNAs, accumulates in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm, and it assumes distinct functions in each of these cellular compartments.

Long non-coding (lnc) RNAs have crucial regulatory roles in molecular pathways, and their dysregulation is associated with the pathogenesis of malignancies such as Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Therefore, we aimed to study the NEAT1 and CHROMR expression in DLBCL and explore their association with clinicopathological characteristics. DLBCL and non-tumor lymph node specimens were obtained to assess the expression levels.

Natural non-coding antisense transcripts (ncNATs) are long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) transcribed from the opposite strand of a separate protein coding or non-coding gene. As such, ncNATs can increase overlapping mRNA (and the coded protein) levels by stabilizing mRNA, absorbing inhibitory miRNAs and protecting the mRNA from degradation, or conversely decrease mRNA (or protein) levels by directing the mRNA towards degradation or inhibiting protein translation. Recently, growing numbers of ncNATs were shown to be dysregulated in cancerous cells, however, actual impact of ncNATs on cancer progression remains largely unknown.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as critical regulators of gene expression, yet their contribution to immune regulation in humans remains poorly understood. Here, we report that the primate-specific lncRNA is induced by influenza A virus and SARS-CoV-2 infection and coordinates the expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that execute antiviral responses. depletion in human macrophages reduces histone acetylation at regulatory regions of ISG loci and attenuates ISG expression in response to microbial stimuli.
