The mRNA, miRNA and lncRNA networks in hepatocellular carcinoma: An integrative transcriptomic analysis from Gene Expression Omnibus.

ABSTRACT: Research advances and analysis in the non‑protein coding part of the human genome have suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are associated with tumor initiation, growth and metastasis. Accumulating studies have demonstrated that a class of miRNAs and lncRNAs are dysregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and closely associated with tumorigenesis, diagnosis and prognosis. In the present study, integrative analysis of published data on multi‑level Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and a bioinformatics computational approach were used to predict regulatory mechanism networks among differentially expressed mRNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs. Firstly, nine microarray expression data sets of mRNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs associated with HCC were collected from GEO datasets. S
