Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression. In this study, we explored the association between the expression of lncRNA AC007128.1 and TB susceptibility.
Methods: Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs12333784, rs6463794, and rs720964) of lncRNA AC007128.1 were selected using the 1000 Genomes Project database and offline software Haploview V4.2, and were genotyped by a customized 2×48-Plex SNPscan™ Kit.
Results: We identified two differentially expressed lncRNA including AC007128.1 and AP001065.3 in comparisons of expression profiles between ATB LTBI, LTBI HCs, and AC700128.1 expression was specifically and significantly up-regulated in TB patients by verification of external data. Gene Ontology functional enrichment analysis and co-expression network showed up-regulated mRNA was mainly involved in negative regulation of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling pathway, and FPR1 and CYP27B1 were involved in the co-expression of AC007128.1. Using the 1000 Genomes Project, software Haploview V4.2, and SNP genotype, we screened out SNP rs12333784 which locus at 7p21.3 in AC007128.1 associated with TB susceptibility. The G carrier of rs12333784 was then finally verified to be significantly associated with pulmonary TB (PTB) and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) susceptibility (pBonferroni =0.03878), and a similar but more significant effect was observed under the dominant model analysis (pBonferroni =0.013, OR =1.349, 95% CI, 1.065-1.709). In addition, the GG + GA genotype of SNP rs12333784 was significantly correlated with higher glucose (GLU) (P=0.03), higher gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) (P=0.05), and higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (P=0.05).
Conclusions: Our findings show lncRNA AC007128.1 can be regarded as biomarkers discriminating between ATB and LTBI and may also be a diagnostic biomarker for LBTI. These findings may aid clinical decision making in the management of TB.

Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease that is endemic worldwide and is characterized by persistent hyperglycemia accompanied by multiple severe complications, including cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, neuropathy, and retinopathy. The pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and its complications is multifactorial, involving various molecular and cellular pathways. In recent years, research has indicated that mechanisms of cell death play a significant role in the advancement of diabetes and its complications.
