Numerous lncRNA have been linked to oxidative damage in diabetic retinopathy, including metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), Hox antisense intergenic RNA (HOTAIR), nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1), Arid2-IR, OGRU, and HIF1 antisense RNA 2 (HIF1A-AS2) [181,182,183,184,185,186]. Here, HIF1A is linked to diabetic retinopathy.
