Identification of Differentially Expressed circRNAs, miRNAs, and Genes in Patients Associated with Cartilaginous Endplate Degeneration

Figure 1

Identification of the DECs, DEMs, and DEGs in GSE153761 dataset. (a) After normalization, the box plot revealed the distribution trends among six samples were nearly the same. The row represents the sample, and the column represents the data expression value in the sample. (b–d) Volcano plot visualizing DECs, DEMs, and DEGs expression between the two groups. Green points represent downregulation (left side), gray points represent undifferential expression (middle), and red points represent upregulation (right side). (e, f) Clustering heatmaps for the DECs, DEMs, and DEGs, with rows representing genes and columns representing samples. The color scale varies from red to blue; red points represent downregulation, and blue points represent downregulation.
