LncRNA NORAD Enhances Inflammatory Injury in Sepsis‐Associated Acute Lung Damage Through miR‐150‐5p/STAT1‐Dependent NF‐κB Activation

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe complication of sepsis, yet the role of lncRNA NORAD in its pathogenesis remains unclear. Using LPS‐stimulated BEAS‐2B and HBEC3‐KT cells as well as cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)‐induced ALI models in C57BL/6 mice, we found that NORAD expression was markedly upregulated and promoted cell injury ...
