摘要:
Beryllium and its compounds can cause pulmonary interstitial fibrosis through mechanisms that are not yet clear. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is implicated in various diseases. The molecular toxicity of beryllium sulfate (BeSO(4)) was investigated through the RNA-seq analysis of the lncRNA and mRNA whole-transcriptome of BeSO(4)-treated 16HBE cells. A total of 1014 lncRNAs (535 upregulated and 479 downregulated) and 4035 mRNAs (2224 upregulated and 1811 downregulated) were found to be significantly dysregulated (|logFC|≥>2.0, p
