Background:
This study aimed to construct an endogenous competition network for cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions using differential gene screening.
Methods:
GSE149763 was used to screen differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and mRNAs to predict correlated microRNAs (miRNAs). The correlated miRNAs and GSE105409 were used to screen differentially expressed miRNAs for differential co-expression analysis, and the co-expressed differentially expressed miRNAs were used to predict correlated mRNAs. Differentially expressed mRNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs were visualized, and differential gene screening, enrichment, and pathway analysis were performed.
Results:
The ceRNA network of cervical squamous intraepithelial was successfully established and a potential differentially expressed network was identified. The key genes were VEGFA and FOS, and the key pathway was the MAPK signaling pathway.
Conclusions:
The differential expression and potential effects of the lncRNA BACH1-IT1/miR-140-5p/VEGFA axis, key genes, VEGFA and FOS, and MAPK signaling in CIN were clarified, and the occurrence and potential effects of CIN were further clarified. The underlying molecular mechanism provides a certain degree of reference for subsequent treatments and experimental research.
