Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is an important factor leading to permanent damage of central nervous system (CNS) and even neonatal death . Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been shown to get involved in the pathogenesis of nervous system diseases . LINC00938 is an intergenic lncRNA which is reported to be involved in neurodegenerative disease . However, the potential role of LINC00938 in nerve injury of neonatal HIE is undetermined. Here, we found that the expression of LINC00938 in the whole blood of neonates with HIE was downregulated compared with the non-HIE group. Functional study revealed that the expression of LINC00938 was significantly decreased in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced SH-SY5Y. Knockdown of LINC00938 induced the neural cell apoptosis by increased the protein level of Bax, Cleaved-Caspase3 and decreased the expression of Bcl-2. In addition, overexpression of LINC00938 prevented the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y from OGD injury. RNA-seq analysis showed that MAPK signaling was involved in the anti-apoptosis function of LINC00938. LINC00938 knockdown induced the activation of c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, and inhibited the activation of ERK signaling. However, LINC00938 play neuroprotective role in OGD-induced SH-SY5Y by suppression the phosphorylation of JNK and p38 MAPK rather than regulation of ERK signaling pathway . Further analyses illustrated that the cell apoptosis of neuronal cell was dependent on the elevation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and result in mitochondria dysfunction in LINC00938 knockdown SH-SY5Y. Pretreated with ROS inhibitor N -acetylcysteine amide (NACA) dramatically suppressed LINC00938 knockdown induced oxidative stress and mitochondria dysfunction which induced cell apoptosis. In addition, NACA treatment significantly reduced the expression of p-JNK and p-p38 in OGD-induced SH-SY5Y. Furthermore, overexpression of LINC00938 displayed a notably neuroprotective effect by suppress central nervous system cell apoptosis via alleviating oxidative stress in CoCl 2 -induced hypoxic HIE model of zebrafish. Taken together, these results suggested that LINC00938 can act as a neuroprotective factor to inhibit oxidative stress and apoptosis of CNS under HIE conditions.
