Low back pain influences people of every age and is one of the major contributors to the global cost of illness. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a major contributor to low back pain, but its pathogenesis is unknown. Recently, ferroptosis has been shown to have a substantial role in modulating IVDD progression. However, the function of ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has rarely been reported in IVDD. Consequently, the research was conducted to explore the ferroptosis-related lncRNA signature in the IVDD occurrence and development. We analyzed two datasets (GSE167199 and GSE167931) archived in the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) public database. We screened differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELncs) in these datasets using the limma package. Ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) were derived from the FerrDb V2 website and the intersection of DEGs and FRGs was considered as differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes (DFGs). These genes were then subjected to Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis. Correlations between DFGs and DELncs were shown by Pearson test to determine differential expression of ferroptosis-related lncRNAs. The Pearson test showed that CPEB1-HTR2A-AS1 and ACSL3-DNAJC27-AS1 pairs had correlation coefficients over 0.9. Twenty ferroptosis-related lncRNAs were identified and validated in IVDD. Eight of these lncRNAs were upregulated in IVDD nucleus pulposus cells, including HTR2A-AS1, MIF-AS1, SLC8A1-AS1, LINC00942, DUXAP8, LINC00161, LUCAT1 and LINC01615. Twelve were downregulated in IVDD nucleus pulposus cells, including DNAJC27-AS1, H19, LINC01588, LINC02015, FLNC1, CARMN, PRKG1-AS1, APCDD1L-DT, LINC00839, LINC00536, LINC00710 and LINC01535. Eighteen of the 20 lncRNAs (excluding H19 and LUCAT1) were identified as ferroptosis-related lncRNAs for the first time and verified in IVDD. We have identified a ferroptosis-related lncRNA signature involved in IVDD and revealed a close relationship between CPEB1 and HTR2A-AS1, and between ACSL3 and DNAJC27-AS1. Our findings indicate that ferroptosis-related lncRNAs are a new target set for the early detection and therapy of IVDD.
