Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) models in rodents is crucial in stroke research to mimic human stroke. Building the mRNA and non-conding RNA network is essential for preventing MCAO-induced ischemic stroke occurrence. Herein, genome-wide mRNA, miRNA, and lncRNA expression profiles among the MCAO group at 3\u00a0h, 6\u00a0h, and 12\u00a0h after surgery and controls using high-throughput RNA sequencing. We detected differentially expressed mRNAs (DE-mRNAs), miRNAs (DE-miRNAs), and lncRNAs (DE-lncRNAs) between the MCAO and control groups. In addition, biological functional analyses were conducted, including GO\/KEGG enrichment analysis, and protein-protein interaction analysis (PPI). GO analysis indicated that the DE-mRNAs were mainly enriched in several important biological processes as lipopolysaccharide, inflammatory response, and response to biotic stimulus. The PPI network analysis revealed that the 12 DE-mRNA target proteins showed more than 30\u00b0 with other proteins, and the top three proteins with the highest node degree were Alb, IL-6, and TNF. In the DE-mRNAs, we found the mRNA of Gp6 and Elane interacting with two miRNAs (novel_miR_879 and novel_miR_528) and two lncRNAs (MSTRG.348134.3 and MSTRG.258402.19). As a result of this study, a new perspective can be gained into the molecular pathophysiology leading to the formation of MCAO. The mRNA-miRNA\u2012lncRNA regulatory networks play an important role in MCAO-induced ischemic stroke pathogenesis and could be applied to the treatment and prevention of ischemic stroke in the future.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fgene.2023.1169190","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,9]],"date-time":"2023-05-09T04:29:07Z","timestamp":1683606547000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Identification of the lncRNA\u2013miRNA\u2012mRNA regulatory network for middle cerebral artery occlusion-induced ischemic stroke"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Guixin","family":"Shi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dong","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hua","family":"Xiao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu\u2019e","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chuanyong","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fang","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"78","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.286.1.78","article-title":"Risk of stroke associated with abciximab among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention","volume":"286","author":"Akkerhuis","year":"2001","journal-title":"Jama-J Am.
