Influenza virus infection significantly induces the expression of lncRNA GAS5 via type I/III interferons and IL-6 signal pathways via type I/III interferons and IL-6 signal pathways.

Abstract

Highlights • Influenza virus infection significantly induces the expression of lncRNA GAS5 via type I/III interferons and IL-6 signal pathways.• LncRNA GAS5 can encode a critical micropeptide GAS5-P50 which facilitates influenza virus replication.• GAS5-pP50 interacts with NOTUM to promote the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
