The Identification of Childhood Asthma Progression-Related lncRNAs and mRNAs Suitable as Biomarkers Using Weighted Gene Coexpression Network Analysis
Background. Asthma is a common chronic respiratory disease in children, seriously affecting children’s health and growth. This bioinformatics study aimed to identify potential RNA candidates closely associated with childhood asthma development within current gene databases. Methods. GSE65204 and GSE...

This bioinformatics study aimed to identify potential RNA candidates closely associated with childhood asthma development within current gene databases. Methods. GSE65204 and GSE19187 datasets were screened and downloaded from the NCBI GEO database. Differentially expressed long noncoding RNAs (DE-lncRNAs) and mRNAs (DE-mRNAs) were identified using the Bioconductor limma package in R, and these DE-mRNAs were used to perform biological process (BP) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses.
