Identification of the circRNA–miRNA–mRNA Regulatory Network in Pterygium-Associated Conjunctival Epithelium

Figure 4

Identification of pterygium-associated DE-mRNAs. (a) Venn diagram was represented with 145 DE-mRNAs overlapping with pterygium-associated genes. (b) The overlapping DE-mRNAs were mainly involved in cell death, DNA repair, cell proliferation, EMT, inflammation, and angiogenesis. The columns indicate the input quantities of upregulated DE-mRNAs (red) and downregulated DE-mRNAs (blue). (c) Heatmap showing the cell death-related DE-mRNA expression. (d) Heatmap showing the DNA repair-related DE-mRNA expression. (e) Heatmap showing EMT-related DE-mRNA expression. (f) Heatmap showing inflammation-related DE-mRNA expression. (g) Heatmap showing angiogenesis-related DE-mRNA expression.
