Frontiers | Construction of Severe Eosinophilic Asthma Related Competing Endogenous RNA Network by Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis
Background Currently, disease control in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma is not optimistic. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks have been found to play a key role in asthma in recent years. However, it is unclear whether ceRNA networks play an important part in severe eosinophilic asthma. Methods Firstly, gene expression profiles related to severe eosinophilic asthma were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Secondly, the key modules were identified by the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Thirdly, genes in modules highly associated wit...
