Systematic identification of lncRNAs in PDLSCs. (a) The pipeline for the identification of novel lncRNAs. (b) Circos plot showing the lncRNA profiling in PDLSCs. Each circle represents a PDLSC subset (from inner to outer: uPDLSCs, dPDLSCs and TNF-α-dPDLSCs). For each circle, the inside bars represent novel lncRNAs and the outside bars represent known lncRNAs. (c) Coding potential of transcripts from the entire dataset, estimated using CPAT algorithm. (d) Length distribution of protein-coding genes, known lncRNAs and novel lncRNAs. (e) Expression abundance of protein-coding genes, known lncRNAs and novel lncRNAs.
