英文摘要 | Recent studies have identified thousands of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in mammalian genomes that regulate gene expression in different biological processes. Although lncRNAs have been identified in a variety of immune cells and implicated in immune response, the biological function and mechanism of the majority remain unexplored, especially in sepsis. Here, we identify a role for a lncRNA—gastric adenocarcinoma predictive long intergenic noncoding RNA (GAPLINC)—previously characterized for its role in cancer, now in the context of innate immunity, macrophages, and LPS-induced endotoxic shock. Transcriptome analysis of macrophages from humans and mice reveals that GAPLINC is a conserved lncRNA that is highly expressed following macrophage differentiation. Upon inflammatory activation, GAPLINC is rapidly down-regulated. Macrophages depleted of GAPLINC display enhanced expression of inflammatory genes at baseline, while overexpression of GAPLINC suppresses this response. Consistent with GAPLINC-depleted cells, Gaplinc knockout mice display enhanced basal levels of inflammatory genes and show resistance to LPS-induced endotoxic shock. Mechanistically, survival is linked to increased levels of nuclear NF-κB in Gaplinc knockout mice that drives basal expression of target genes typically only activated following inflammatory stimulation. We show that this activation of immune response genes prior to LPS challenge leads to decreased blood clot formation, which protects Gaplinc knockout mice from multiorgan failure and death. Together, our results identify a previously unknown function for GAPLINC as a negative regulator of inflammation and uncover a key role for this lncRNA in modulating endotoxic shock. © 2021 National Academy of Sciences.
