ABSTRACT
Radicular cysts are characterized by significant levels of changes in inflammatory biomarkers. Among them, interleukins and growth factors have been reported to be deregulated in radicular cyst tissues. Moreover, long non-coding RNAs are recently discovered non-coding RNA molecules that regulate various intracellular stimuli to keep homeostasis in balance. A growing body of evidence suggests that lncRNAs are significantly involved in the regulation of inflammation by targeting various inflammatory biomarkers. Accordingly, the present study was aimed to investigate the gene expression levels of inflammation-related lncRNAs in radicular cysts and show their possible roles in the development of radicular cysts. For the study, a total of 25 patients with a radiologically and pathologically confirmed radicular cyst were enrolled. For the determination of non-coding RNA expression levels, real-time qPCR was used. As a result of the current study, expression levels of PACER and THRIL were found to be significantly elevated in radicular cyst tissues compared to control tissue samples. However, MALAT1, ANRIL, and NEAT1 expression levels were not significantly altered in radicular cyst tissues compared to control tissue samples. In conclusion, long non-coding RNAs, PACER and THRIL, seem to have significant pathophysiological roles by acquiring molecular changes during inflammation and might be involved in the development and formation of radicular cysts.
