Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and dendritic cells (DC) play crucial roles in the development of acute coronary syndrome (ACS); however, the mechanisms remain unclear. To investigate this, we analysed the differentially expressed lncRNAs in monocyte‐derived DCs (moDCs) from patients with ACS. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were transformed into moDCs. Cellular morphology and expression levels of moDC‐specific markers (CD80, CD86, CD11c, CD14 and HLA‐DR) were analysed using electron microscopy (EM) and flow cytometry (FCM), respectively. Differentially expressed lncRNAs and their functions were predicted using gene sequencing, gene ontology and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. The expression levels of markers, signalling pathway molecules (p‐PI3K and p‐AKT), inflammatory cytokines (IL‐6 and IL‐12p70) and target gene (C‐C motif chemokine ligand (CCL) 15 and CCL14) were analysed by overexpression or silencing of candidate lncRNAs. EM revealed the cells to be suspended in dendritic pseudopodia. CD11c and HLA‐DR were upregulated, while CD80 and CD86 were downregulated. Comparison between the UA versus ST group showed the highest number of differentially expressed lncRNAs (n = 113), followed by UA versus NST (n = 115), CON versus NST (n = 49) and CON versus ST (n = 35); however, the number was low for CON versus UA and ST versus NST groups. moDC‐specific marker expression, signalling pathway molecules, inflammatory cytokines and CCL14 were upregulated following lentiviral overexpression of smart silencer‐CCL15‐CCL14; however, expression levels decreased following transfection with siRNA. The morphology, function and lncRNA expression of moDCs differ depending on the type of ACS. The differentially expressed lncRNAs, particularly CCL15‐CCL14, regulate the function of moDCs. Thus, our study provides new insights regarding the role of lncRNAs in ACS and indicates the potential use of CCL15‐CCL14 as a novel diagnostic marker and therapeutic target. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
