miRNAs correlated to increased inhaled corticosteroid usage are enriched in immune associated genes. As miR-155 and miR-146a both positively correlated to inhaled corticosteroid usage, common gene targets were identified and pathway analysis was performed. (a) Predicted and verified targets for miR-155 and miR-146a were compared. Common gene targets are shown in the box. (b) Shows all common connected gene targets. The protein-protein interaction value for the analysis was significant (p = 0.00336). Targets identified as being involved in immune processes are colored: response to glucocorticoid (red), positive regulation of leukocyte migration (blue) and leukocyte activation (green). Pathways were generated using String [39]
