Cis-Acting Lnc-Cxcl2 Restrains Neutrophil-Mediated Lung Inflammation by Inhibiting Epithelial Cell CXCL2 Expression in Virus Infection

Scientists identified an inducible lncRNA in the Cxcl2 gene locus, lnc-Cxcl2, which could selectively inhibit Cxcl2 expression in mouse lung epithelial cells but not in macrophages.
