Five genes involved in circular RNA-associated competitive endogenous RNA network correlates with metastasis in papillary thyroid carcinoma
This study aimed to identify potential circular RNA (circRNA), microRNA (miRNA) and mRNA biomarkers as well as their underlying regulatory mechanisms in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Three microarray datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus database as well as expression data and clinical phen...
