Figure Lengend Snippet: Characterization of the expression profile of circular RNAs in blood samples of MCAO-treated mice. (A) Normalized intensities of all circular RNAs expressed in the blood in sham and 5 min, 3-h, and 24-h MCAO-treated mice; n = 3 per group. (B) The scatter plots show the differentially expressed circRNAs in the 5-min, 3-h, and 24-h MCAO groups compared with sham. circRNAs in the scatter plot above and below the diagonal line indicate upregulation and downregulation, respectively. (C) Volcano plots show circRNA expression profiles in the 5-min, 3-h, and 24-h MCAO groups compared with sham control. Red dots represent differentially expressed circRNAs ( p < 0.05 and fold-change ≥ 2.0). (D) Distribution of different types of differentially expressed circRNAs, including those consisting of exon, intron, intergenic region, sense, and antisense sequences. (E) Venn diagram shows the overlapping differentially expressed circRNA probes among the three groups compared with sham control. The total numbers of probes exhibiting differential expression in 5 min, 3 h, and 24 h are 1051, 782, and 2721, respectively.
