Global ceRNA network and DE ceRNA network. (a): Global ceRNA network, 434,187 edges and 15,317 nodes (387 miRNAs, 1128 lncRNAs, 13,802 mRNAs). (b): DE ceRNA network, 6800 edges and 547 nodes (378 miRNAs, 6 lncRNAs, and 163 mRNAs). (c): 5 key lncRNAs related ceRNA subnetworks. In the above networks, blue triangle = lncRNAs, yellow rectangle = microRNAs, red oval = mRNAs
