Figure 1. DEP of three placental IncRNAs, the IncADAM9 (orange), IncPCDH10 (yellow), and IncUPS46 (green). Data were collected from 40 pregnancies, including 10 from each pPROM (A), FTB (B), sPTL (C), and PROM (D). The IncRNAs were significantly (*P < 0.05) up-regulated in preterm birth (pPROM and sPTL) compared to full-term birth (FTB and PROM), suggesting that IncRNAs may have played epigenetic regulatory roles in preterm syndrome.
