The aim of this study was to provide a comprehensive understanding of similarities and differences in mRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs within cartilage for Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) compared to osteoarthritis (OA). We conducted a comparison of the expression profiles of mRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs via whole-transcriptome sequencing in eight KBD and ten OA individuals. To facilitate functional annotation-enriched analysis for differentially expressed (DE) genes, DE lncRNAs, and DE circRNAs, we employed bioinformatic analysis utilizing Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG...
