Fig. 5.
Correlation between top 5 significantly upregulated and downregulated lncRNAs and mRNA transcripts. LncRNA-mRNA co-expression network was constructed with top 5 up- and downregulated lncRNAs and 353 associated mRNAs. Red nodes, blue nodes, and yellow nodes correspond to upregulated lncRNAs, downregulated lncRNAs, and coding genes/mRNAs. Solid lines signify a positive Pearson’s correlation coefficient (PCC), and dotted lines signify negative PCC. Coding–noncoding pairs are defined as co-expressing pairs if ∣PCC∣ ≥ 0.9 and p ≤ 0.05
