Abstract
OBJECTIVE
In the quest to decipher the molecular intricacies of Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction (POCD), this study focused on circular RNA (circRNA) and their regulatory networks.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Analyzing the Gene Expression Omnibus Series (GSE) 147277 dataset, we pinpointed 10 differentially expressed circRNAs linked to POCD.
RESULTS
The ensuing competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, featuring pivotal players like Homo sapiens(hsa)_circ_0003424 and hsa-miR-193b-5p, provided a comprehensive understanding of the molecular players at play in POCD.
CONCLUSION
Additionally, the Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) network spotlighted 10 core Hub genes, including phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3), shedding light on potential therapeutic targets.
