Construction and analysis of an aberrant lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network associated with papillary thyroid cancer.

ABSTRACT: Accumulating evidence has indicated that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are the main constituents of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks. Nonetheless, in the lncRNA-related ceRNA network of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), the function of cancer-specific lncRNAs, as well as their use for the potential prediction of PTC prognosis, remains unclear. In this study, 384 RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) profiles of PTC patients were attained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), an open-source database that offers vast amounts of RNA-seq data, and 75 miRNAs, 495 lncRNAs, and 1099 mRNAs (P < .05 and |logFC| >2) were detected when compared with normal tissues. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways were analyzed using the Cytoscape plug-in BinGo. An aberrant lncR
