Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have multiple biological functions in the vascular system including in endothelial cells (ECs). Hepatocellular carcinoma associated transcript 1 (HULC) is a lncRNA and highly up-regulated in liver cancer. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a remarkable risk factor for various disease. We investigated and compared HULC expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with two different concentration of ox-LDL. We used quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method to detect HULC expression level in HUVECs. HULC expression was found to be statistic significantly up-regulated in HUVECs treated with higher concentration of ox-LDL (P
