Abstract:
Cigarette smoking plays an important role in the process of lung cancer, during which DNA damage is proved to be involved. Non-coding RNAs are found to be involved in the DNA damage and repair processes induced by cigarette smoke. In the present study, we investigated the role of lncRNA LCPAT1 in DNA damage caused by CSE in Beas-2B cells. Our results indicate that LCPAT1, through RCC2 is involved in the CSE-induced DNA damage providing new insight into the lung carcinogenesis related to cigarette smoking.
