RNA-seq Analysis of PBMC in Patients With OPLL

Fifth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University30 enrolled

Overview

In this study, we planned to identify transcriptome expression profiles (circRNAs, lncRNAs, and mRNAs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 30 patients with OPLL and 30 other non-OPLL patients by high-throughput sequencing.Sequence analysis was used to predict miRNAs that might bind circRNAs and lncRNAs.Through bioinformatics analysis, competitive endogenous RNAs (cerRNAs), as well as coexpression networks among circRNAs, lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs, were constructed to provide key molecules and signaling pathways associated with OPLL.
