There are associations between DNA methylation and the expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), also known as lncRNA expression quantitative trait methylations (lnc-eQTMs). Lnc-eQTMs may induce a wide range of carcinogenesis pathways. However, lnc-eQTMs have not been globally identified and studied, and their roles in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous carcinoma (LUSC) are largely unknown. In the present study, we identified some differential methylation sites located in genes of long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) and other types of lncRNAs in LUAD and LUSC. An integrated pipeline was established to construct two global cancer-specific regulatory networks of lnc-eQTMs in LUAD and LUSC. The associations between eQTMs showed common and specific features between LUAD and LUSC. Some lnc-eQTMs were also related with survival in LUAD- and LUSC-specific regulatory networks. Lnc-eQTMs were associated with cancer-related functions, such as lung epithelium development and vasculogenesis by functional analysis. Drug repurposing analysis revealed that these lnc-eQTMs may mediate the effects of some anesthesia-related drugs in LUAD and LUSC. In summary, the present study elucidates the roles of lnc-eQTMs in LUAD and LUSC, which could improve our understanding of lung cancer pathogenesis and facilitate treatment.
