Abstract:Background: Sepsis-associated acute lung injury (SA-ALI) is a serious threat to human health. A growing body of evidence suggested that circular RNAs may be involved in ALI progression. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of circ_0001226 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)–induced BEAS-2B cells. Methods: BEAS-2B cells were stimulated with LPS to establish a SA-ALI cell model. The expression of circ_0001226, miR-940, and transforming growth factor beta receptor II (TGFBR2) were monitored b… Show more
