In addition, in order to reveal the post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism of CXCL8, PTGS2, and IL10, this study constructed a gout-related ceRNA regulatory network based on the miRNet database, and identified a series of lncRNAs (such as KCNQ1OT1) and miRNAs (such as miR-98-5p) that may play an important regulatory role in the pathogenesis of gout. Here, PTGS2 is linked to gout.
