Abstract: To study the regulation role of estradiol (E2) on long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression in thymic epithelial cells (TEC).The cell phenotypic changes were observed after the 50 nmol/L E2 was added in cultured mouse epithelial cell line 1 (MTEC1),while the cell viability was also measured with CCK-8 kit.Furthermore,total RNA was extracted and the expression regulatory role of E2 on lncRNA-2410006H16Rik was verified by Real-time quantitative PCR.Moreover,the target gene was amplified by RT-PCR to construct a recombinant vector of pEGFP-N1-lncRNA-2410006H16Rik.The results showed the proliferation of MTEC1 cells was significantly inhibited by 50 nmol/L E2,and the D450 nm value was also extremely significantly reduced as compared with control group detected by CCK-8 (P<0.01),indicating that the cell viability was extremely significantly decreased by E2.Real-time quantitative PCR results indicated that the expression of lncRNA-2410006H16Rik in MTEC1 cells was extremely significantly up-regulated by 50 nmol/L E2 (P<0.01),and about two fold-changes higher than control group cells,which was consistent with the high-throughput sequencing results.RT-PCR,double enzyme digestion and sequencing results showed that the pEGFP-N1-lncRNA-2410006H16Rik expression vector was successfully constructed.All the above results indicated that the expression of lncRNA-2410006H16Rik in TECs was closely related to the effect of E2,which laid a foundation for further verification of the regulatory function of lncRNA-2410006H16Rik at the cellular level.
