Objective:
To analyze the characteristics of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods: lncRNA-mRNA microarray was conducted on the liver tissue samples from 10 patients with simple gallbladder stone (5 NAFLD liver samples and 5 normal liver samples), and the differentially expressed lncRNA was analyzed by bioinformatics technology. Results: Compared with the normal liver samples, there were abnormal expression of 1 735 lncRNAs and 1 485 mRNAs in NAFLD liver samples. Among them, 535 lncRNAs and 760 mRNAs were up-regulated, 1 200 lncRNAs and 725 mRNAs were down-regulated. Conclusion: Compared with normal liver, the expression of lncRNA in NAFLD tissues is obviously abnormal. These lncRNAs may play an important role in the occurrence and development of NAFLD.
