Overall regulatory networks of miRNAs, circRNAs and mRNAs. (a) CircRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions are potentially associated with the pathological process of AIS. ceRNA network prediction tools showed that some significant circRNA-miRNA-mRNA pairs may be involved in AIS associated with apoptotic pathways; these molecules included hsa_circ_0005548, hsa_circ_0000607 and hsa_circ_0020028, 101 miRNAs, and five mRNAs (Bax, Bcl2, Bcl2l2, BID, and Casp3). In the figure, blue circles represent miRNAs, red diamonds represent circRNAs and green rectangles represent mRNAs. (b) The possible binding miRNAs and mRNAs in hsa_circ_0000607-related AIS. One direct target of miR-337-3p was Bcl2, and hsa_circ_0000607 may potentially bind to hsa-miR-337-3p. Pathway analysis based on the hsa_circ_0000607/hs-miR-337-3p/Bcl2 network. The bioinformatic prediction of hsa_circ_0000607 target genes associated with AIS and apoptosis pathways and the miRNA-targeted mRNAs were predicted via TargetScan, miRanda and starBase.
