The MAPK pathway is targeted by the altered lncRNAs in lung fibrosis [32] and peritoneal fibrosis in mice [35]; the TGF-β pathway is closely associated with the changed lncRNAs in kidney fibrosis [34] and peritoneal fibrosis in mice [35]; the Jak/STAT signalling pathway is associated with the deregulated lncRNAs in lung fibrosis in rats [33] and mouse peritoneal fibrosis [35]; the TGF-β and MAPK signalling pathways are related to the changed lncRNAs characterized in our study. Here, TGFB1 is linked to Peritoneal Fibrosis.
