Genome-Wide Identification of Long Noncoding RNAs in Human Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by RNA Sequencing

Figure 5

The relative expression level of 12 lncRNAs and mRNAs. The first four differentially expressed lncRNAs were upregulated in IDD, the second four differentially expressed lncRNAs were downregulated in IDD, and the third four differentially expressed genes were one lncRNA (PART1) and three mRNAs (ACVR1, E2F3, and VEGFA) in ceRNA network. The asterisk () means significantly different expression between IDD group and control.
