Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder resulting from antibodies against the proteins at the neuromuscular junction. Emerging evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), acting as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), are involved in various diseases. However, the regulatory mechanisms of ceRNAs underlying MG remain largely unknown. In this study, we constructed a lncRNA-mediated ceRNA network involved in MG using a multi-step computational strategy. Functional annotation analysis suggests that these lncRNAs may play crucial roles in the immunological mechanism underlying MG. Importantly, through manual literature mining, we found that lncRNA SNHG16 (small nucleolar RNA host gene 16), acting as a ceRNA, plays important roles in the immune processes. Further experiments showed that SNHG16 expression was upregulated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from MG patients compared to healthy controls. Luciferase reporter assays confirmed that SNHG16 is a target of the microRNA (miRNA) let-7c-5p. Subsequent experiments indicated that SNHG16 regulates the expression of the key MG gene interleukin (IL)-10 by sponging let-7c-5p in a ceRNA manner. Furthermore, functional assays showed that SNHG16 inhibits Jurkat cell apoptosis and promotes cell proliferation by sponging let-7c-5p. Our study will contribute to a deeper understanding of the regulatory mechanism of MG and will potentially provide new therapeutic targets for MG patients.
