Construction of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network and identification of novel potential biomarkers for non-small cell lung cancer
Abstract Background The underlying circular RNAs (circRNAs)-related competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanisms of pathogenesis and prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unclear. Methods Differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs) in two Gene Expression Omnibus datasets (GSE101684 an...
