Abstract

BACKGROUND: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a major complication of diabetes, leading to severe vision impairment. Understanding the molecular mechanisms, particularly PANoptosis, underlying DR is crucial for identifying potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets. This study aims to identify differentially expressed PANoptosis-related genes (DE-PRGs) in DR, offering insights into the disease's pathogenesis and potential diagnostic tools.
