To determine whether lncRNAs are involved in ischemic stroke (IS), we analyzed the expression profile of lncRNAs and mRNAs in IS. RNA sequencing was performed on the blood of three pairs of IS patients and heathy controls. Differential expression analysis was used to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) and mRNAs (DEmRNAs). Based on the co-expression relationships between lncRNA and mRNA, a series of bioinformatics analysis including GO and KEGG enrichment analysis and PPI analysis, were conducted to predict the function of lncRNA. RNA sequencing produced a total of 5 DElncRNAs and 144 DEmRNAs. Influenza A pathway and Herpes simplex infection pathway were the most significant pathway. EP300 and NFKB1 were the most important target proteins, Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) family were the key gene in IS. Analysis of this study revealed that dysregulated lncRNAs in IS may lead to IS by affecting the immune and inflammation system. Findings may be the foundation for understanding the potential role of lncRNAs.
