The role and mechanism of inflammation in breast cancer is unclear. This study aims to probe the relationship between inflammation and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and to stablish an inflammation-related competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network in breast cancer. Inflammation-related lncRNAs and target genes were screened based on the data from four single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) studies and miRNAs were bioinformatically predicted according to ceRNA hypothesis. A series of in silico analyses were performed to construct an inflammation-related ceRNA network in breast cancer. Consequently, a total of seven inflammation-related lncRNAs were selected, after which LRRC75A-AS1 was identified as the most potential lncRNA in view of its expression and prognostic predictive value in breast cancer. Finally, an inflammation-related ceRNA network in breast cancer at the single cell level was established based on lncRNA LRRC75A-AS1, miR-3127-5p, miR-2114-3p, RPL36 and RPL27A mRNAs. Collectively, the lncRNA LRRC75A-AS1 and the LRRC75A-AS1-based on ceRNA network may exert crucial roles in modulating inflammation response during the initiation and progression of breast cancer.
