PTGS2 and Alzheimer disease: In this study, based on the AD mRNA and miRNA expression profile data in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), through differential expression analysis, functional annotation and enrichment analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, miRNA–mRNA regulatory network, protein–protein interaction network, receiver operator characteristic and Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and other analysis, we screened the key miRNA–mRNA in the progress of AD: miR-26a-5p/PTGS2.
