Long noncoding RNA ANRIL alleviates hypoxia‐induced pulmonary microvascular endothelial cell damage

High-altitude pulmonary oedema (HAPE) is a form of noncardiogenic pulmonary oedema. Studies have found that long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) plays an important role in HAPE. ANRIL is significant in pulmonary illnesses, which implies that alterations in ANRIL expression levels may be involved in the beginning and development of HAPE. However, the specific mechanism is indistinct. The present study is meant to explore the effect and mechanism of ANRIL on hypoxic-induced injury of pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMEVCs).
