flicr: FLICR, a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), has been observed to have higher expression levels in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) compared to control subjects, as indicated by a significant elevation in a study [PMC9461285]. This lncRNA plays a regulatory role in the immune system by influencing the expression of the transcription factor Foxp3, which is crucial for the development and function of regulatory T cells (Tregs) [PMC8954347]. Specifically, FLICR acts as an inhibitor of Foxp3 expression, which leads to the suppression of Treg cells through alterations in chromatin accessibility [PMC8954347]. This suppression could contribute to the immune dysregulation observed in MS patients.
