Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a debilitating disease that affects millions of Americans. Most research to date has focused on the deleterious effects of PH within the small vessels of the lungs that determine resistance. A relatively recent focus of PH is on the large pulmonary arteries (PAs) that provide compliance. Loss of compliance in these arteries, or arterial stiffening, is an excellent predictor of mortality in PH [1], which is most often caused by right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy and failure [2].

Abstract Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in the pathogenesis of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH). The role of N7-methylguanosine (m7G) modification in lncRNAs has received increased attentions in recent years. However, the m7G-methylation of lncRNA in HPH has yet to be determined. We have therefore performed a transcriptome-wide analysis of m7G lncRNAs in HPH. Results Differentially-expressed m7Gs were detected in HPH, and m7G lncRNAs were significantly upregulated compared with non-m7G lncRNAs in HPH. Importantly, this was the first time that the upregulated m7G lncXR_591973 and m7G lncXR_592398 were identified in HPH. Conclusion This study provides the first m7G transcriptome-wide analysis of HPH. Importantly, two HPH-associated m7G lncRNAs were identified, although their clinical significance requires further validation.
