Altered Expression of Long Noncoding RNAs in Blood After Ischemic Stroke and Proximity to Putative Stroke Risk Loci
14 Nov 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although peripheral blood mRNA and micro-RNA change after ischemic stroke, any role for long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), which comprise most of the genome and have been implicated in various diseases, is unknown. Thus, we hypothesized that lncRNA expression also changes after stroke. METHODS: lncRNA expression was assessed in 266 whole-blood RNA samples drawn once per individual from patients...
