Knockdown of Snhg15 during VEEV TC-83 infection resulted in the suppression of ten genes including Irf1, Junb, Atf3, Relb, Pim1, Hbegf, Ccl5, Ankrd33b, and H2-K2, all of which were also increased during TC-83 infection when the expression of Snhg15 increased in primary mouse astrocytes. The gene discussed is SNHG15; the disease is infection.
