GSE118077: The long non-coding RNA LINC00941 and SPRR5 are novel regulators of human epidermal homeostasis

  • Organsim human
  • Type RNASEQ
  • Target gene
  • Project ARCHS4

Several long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) act as regulators of cellular homeostasis; however, few of these molecules were functionally characterized in a mature human tissue environment. Here, we report that the lncRNA LINC00941 is a crucial regulator of human epidermal homeostasis. LINC00941 is enriched in progenitor keratinocytes and acts as a repressor of keratinocyte differentiation. Furthermore, LINC00941 represses SPRR5, a previously uncharacterized molecule, which functions as an essential positive regulator of keratinocyte differentiation. Interestingly, 54.8% of genes repressed in SPRR5 deficient epidermal tissue are induced in LINC00941 depleted organotypic epidermis, suggesting a common mode of action for both molecules.
