lncRNA–mRNA Expression Patterns in Invasive Pituitary Adenomas: A Microarray Analysis

Figure 6

Validation of the results of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) microarray analysis by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis for the three selected lncRNAs. (a–c) Expression levels of the three selected lncRNAs—FAM182B, LOC105371531, and LOC105375785—in invasive pituitary adenomas (IPAs) () and noninvasive pituitary adenomas (NIPAs) (). (d–f) ROC curves of the three selected lncRNAs between IPAs and NIPAs. Data is represented as mean ± SEM, , , and versus NIPAs.
