Both DANCR and the sepsis-related neuroprotective lncRNA NEAT1, which initiates and maintains the membrane-less organelle of nuclear paraspeckles (30, 33, 39), were suppressed in SARS-CoV-2 infected cells (Figure 2C) (see corresponding Resource in Supplementary Table 1 for the full list of lncRNAs changed in NHBE and A549 cells infected with SARS-CoV-2, in NHBE cells infected with pandemic H1N1, and in lung inflammatory samples). Here, DANCR is linked to Sepsis.
