Circular RNA hsa_circ_0007142 Is Upregulated and Targets miR-103a-2-5p in Colorectal Cancer

Figure 1

Comparison of circRNA expression profiles between CRC and paired pericancerous tissues. (a) Scatter plots for assessing the difference in the expression of circRNAs among samples (T for CRC and B for adjacent tissues). The values of each group were plotted on the X and Y axes ( scaled). The middle green line represented no difference between two groups, while the flank green lines indicated 2-fold changes. The circRNAs beyond the lines referred to > 2-fold changes between two groups. (b) Volcano plots for differential circRNA expression between two groups. The vertical lines indicated 2 folds ( scaled), and the horizontal line represented P of 0.05 ( scaled). The red dots represented differentially expressed circRNAs with statistical significance.
