Integrative Analysis of Three Novel Competing Endogenous RNA Biomarkers with a Prognostic Value in Lung Adenocarcinoma

Figure 1

(a) Heat map plot of the overlapped DEGs (lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs) between LUAD and normal samples in dataset TCGA. Notes: red represents higher expression, and blue represents lower expression. Abbreviation: DEGs: differentially expressed genes; LUAD: lung adenocarcinoma. (b) Volcano plot showing the DEGs (lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs) between LUAD and normal samples in dataset TCGA. -axis indicates the mean expression differences of genes between LUAD and normal samples, and -axis represents log-transformed value. Note: the black dots represent genes that are not differentially expressed between LUAD and normal samples, and the green dots and red dots represent the downregulated and upregulated genes in LUAD samples, respectively. >1 and adj. value < 0.01 were set as the cut-off criteria. Abbreviation: DEGs: differentially expressed genes; LUAD: lung adenocarcinoma.
