MKNK1 and atherosclerosis: In summary, identified lncRNA-co-expressed/nearby targeted mRNAs pairs including AC005392.3/AC007278.2-IL18R1, AL356356.1/AL137145.2-PFKFB3, and MKNK1-AS1/LINC01127-IL1R2 and several signaling pathways (TNF signaling pathway, cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction, fructose and mannose metabolism, HIF-1 signaling pathway, hematopoietic cell lineage, fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis, and estrogen signaling pathway) may be involved in the progression from AMI to MF to HF.
