An Analysis of Human MicroRNA and Disease Associations
Figure 1
The association of miRNA tissue specificity and the number (Nd) of diseases it implicated in.
Each blue circle represents a miRNA whose x,y coordinates are its Nd and its tissue specificity index value. MiRNAs are grouped into different groups according to the Nd, and then the average tissue specificity index value of each group was calculated, shown as pink triangle. The pink triangles are connected with green lines.
