Tens of thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified through RNA-seq analysis, but the biological and pathological significance remains unclear. By integrating the genome-wide lncRNA data with a cross-ancestry meta-analysis of PDAC GWASs, we depicted a comprehensive atlas of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)-associated lncRNAs, containing 1,204 lncRNA (445 novel lncRNAs and 759 GENCODE annotated lncRNAs) and 4,368 variants. Furthermore, we found that PDAC-associated lncRNAs could function by altering chromatin activity, transcription factors, and RNA-binding proteins binding affinity. Importantly, genetic variants linked to PDAC are preferentially found at PDAC-associated lncRNA regions, supporting the biological and clinical relevance of PDAC-associated lncRNAs. Finally, we prioritized a novel transcript (MICT00000110172.1) ofRP11-638I2.4as a potential tumor promoter.MICT00000110172.1is able to reinforce the interaction with YY1, which could reverse the effect of YY1 on pancreatic cancer cell cycle arrest to promote the pancreatic cancer growth. G > A change at rs2757535 in the second exon ofMICT00000110172.1induces a spatial structural change and creates a target region for YY1 binding, which enforces the effect ofMICT00000110172.1in an allele-specific manner, and thus confers susceptibility to tumorigenesis. In summary, our results extend the repertoire of PDAC-associated lncRNAs that could act as a starting point for future functional explorations, and the identification of lncRNA‐based target therapy.
