However, the role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in this context remains unknown. LncRNA regulate gene expression by acting e.g. as transcriptional coactivators, RNA decoys or microRNA sponges. They control development, differentiation and cellular processes such as autophagy in disease conditions. Here, we provide an insight into the role of lncRNA in mycobacterial infections. Human macrophages were infected with Mycobacterium bovis BCG and lncRNA expression was studied early post infection. For this purpose, lncRNA with known immune related functions were preselected and a lncRNA specific RT-qPCR protocol was established. In addition to expression- based prediction of lncRNA function, we assessed strategies for thorough normalisation of lncRNA. Arrayed quantification showed infection-dependent repression of several lncRNA including MEG3. Pathway analysis linked MEG3 to mTOR and PI3K-AKT signalling pointing to regulation of autophagy. Accordingly, IFN-γ induced autophagy in infected macrophages resulted in sustained MEG3 down regulation and lack of IFN-γ allowed for counter regulation of MEG3 by viable M. bovis BCG. Knockdown of MEG3 in macrophages resulted in induction of autophagy and enhanced eradication of intracellular M. bovis BCG.","13 S.","48056","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/14737||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-18927","eng","http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","600 Technik, Medizin, angewandte Wissenschaften::630 Landwirtschaft::630 Landwirtschaft und verwandte Bereiche","Down regulated lncRNA MEG3 eliminates mycobacteria in macrophages via autophagy","Wissenschaftlicher Artikel","open access","Scientific Reports. - 6 (2016), Artikel Nr. 19416","10.1038/srep19416","http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/srep19416","2045-2322","Institut für Veterinär-Biochemie:::33b64e7d-2671-494b-b4ca-a5312341a115:::600","Veterinärmedizin","Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG)","2100012210","FUDOCS_derivate_000000005904","FUDOCS_document_000000023796","Gefördert durch die DFG und den Open-Access-Publikationsfonds der Freien Universität Berlin","no"
