Effect of Influenza virus infection on lncRNA expression in A549 cells
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a new arm of gene regulatory mechanism as discovered by sequencing techniques and follow-up functional studies. There are only few studies on lncRNAs as related to gene expression regulation and anti-viral activity during influenza virus infection. We sought to identify and characterize lncRNAs involved in influenza virus replication. In the current study, we identified dys-regulated lncRNAs in influenza virus-infected human lung epithelial A549 cells using RNA sequencing in A549 cells. Overall design: RNA sequencing of A549 cells with Influenza virus and MOCK infection.
