IL7R and Sepsis: However, beyond a few studies (Singh et al., 2016; Chowdhury et al., 2017), including one which showed that the lncRNAs EGO (NONHSAT087634) and HOTAIRM1 (NONHSAT119666) are alternatively spliced and that expression of lnc-IL7R is increased during LPS induced sepsis (Chowdhury et al., 2017), not much is known about how altered lncRNA expression is related to pathophysiology of sepsis.
