Identification of transcription factors and construction of a novel miRNA regulatory network in primary osteoarthritis by integrated analysis
Abstract Backgrounds As osteoarthritis (OA) disease-modifying therapies are not available, novel therapeutic targets need to be discovered and prioritized. Here, we aim to identify miRNA signatures in patients to fully elucidate regulatory mechanism of OA pathogenesis and advance in basic understand...

And, RNA-seq dataset was analysed to identify genes, pathways and regulatory networks dysregulated in OA.
