We found that XLOC_004924 was elevated in the airway epithelia of cigarette smokers versus nonsmokers in both of these datasets. In the first dataset, five nonsmokers were compared with six smokers. In the second study, the smokers' epithelia demonstrated a 3.9-fold increase in XLOC_004924, compared with nonsmokers. Functionally,siRNA knockdown of SCAL1 in HBE1 cells shows significant potentiation of cytotoxicity induced by CSE in vitro. Altogether, these results identify a novel and intriguing new non-coding RNA that may act downstream of NRF2 to regulate gene expression and mediate oxidative stress protection in airway epithelial cells. |
