miRNA-mRNA targeting networks generated from the Brazilian cohort. miRNA-mRNA interaction was predicted using TargetScanHuman database. Pairwise correlation was computed between miRNA expression and the expression of the set of up-regulated genes presented in the gene ontology network generated in Fig. 2A. Only miRNA and genes which have negative correlation (less than − 0.50) were included. Regulatory networks associated with extracellular matrix remodeling are clustered (A). The second cluster (B) involves 3 different terms including the formation of the cornified envelope, the establishment of skin barrier and unsaturated fatty acid metabolic process. Genes are represented in grey dots and dot size is proportional to the level of expression; miRNA are represented in blue and edges are labeled with the correlation level between miRNA and genes.
