Comprehensive circular RNA expression profiling with associated ceRNA network in orbital venous malformation.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Orbital venous malformation (OVM), the most common type of vascular malformation in adults, has a great impact on both visual and cosmetic factors. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in various ophthalmological diseases; however, little is known about their function in the pathogenesis of OVM.

Methods

We obtained differentially expressed circRNAs, mRNAs, and miRNAs based on RNA sequencing of four OVM tissues and four normal orbital vascular tissues. The circRNA-mRNA coexpression network and circRNA-miRNA-mRNA and competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks were constructed using miRanda software. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were performed to identify the up- and downregulated mRNAs in the circRNA-miR
