miRNA regulatory network. (A) miRNA regulatory network constructed with DEGs and their regulatory miRNAs. (B) miRNA regulatory network constructed with DEGs and their regulatory miRNAs. Diamond-shaped nodes represent miRNA and circular nodes represent DEGs. Orange and blue nodes represent products of up- and downregulated DEGs, respectively. Grey nodes represent PTC-associated genes that were not included in the DEGs. Nodes with a purple edge represent PTC-associated genes thatwere collected in the Malacard database; and nodes with a green edge represent PTC-associated genes that were not collected in the Malacard database. miRNA, microRNA; DEG, differentially-expressed gene; PTC, papillary thyroid carcinoma.
