Abstract

BACKGROUND: The bile acid metabolism (BAM) and fatty acid metabolism (FAM) have been implicated in Kawasaki disease (KD), but their precise mechanisms remain unclear. Identifying signature cells and genes related to BAM and FAM could offer a deeper understanding of their role in the pathogenesis of KD.
