Project description:Ossification of the ligamentum flava (OLF) is a common spinal disorder among the elderly that causes myelopathy and radiculopathy. Although studies have identified several genes that correlated with OLF, the underlying regulation network is far from clear. To identify transcriptional regulators for OLF, we compared the circRNAs expression of the ligamentum flava tissues from OLF patients and healthy volunteers through microarray analysis, which revealed a panel of circRNAs that were specifically regulated in ligament tissues of human undergoing ossification. To identify transcriptional regulators for OLF, we compared the circRNAs expression of the ligamentum flava tissues from OLF patients and healthy volunteers through microarray analysis.

Although studies have identified several genes that correlated with OLF, the underlying regulation network is far from clear. To identify transcriptional regulators for OLF, we compared the microRNA expression of the ligamentum flava tissues from OLF patients and healthy volunteers through microRNA sequencing.

Although studies have identified several genes that correlated with OLF, the underlying regulation network is far from clear. To identify transcriptional regulators for OLF, we compared the lncRNAs and mRNAs expression of the ligamentum flava tissues from OLF patients and healthy volunteers through microarray analysis, which revealed a panel of lncRNAs and mRNAs that were specifically regulated in ligament tissues of human undergoing ossification.
