Identification of FOXK1 and SEMA7A as key genes associated with m6A-related programmed cell death in diabetic retinopathy.

BACKGROUND: Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a serious microvascular complication of diabetes, has a complex pathogenic mechanism that is intricately linked to programmed cell death (PCD) and also to N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification. The objective of this research was to pinpoint crucial genes related to m6A-related PCD in DR using transcriptomic data, offering novel targets and a theoretical basis...

Bioinformatics analysis reveals the association of bile acid metabolism-related genes with sepsis.

BACKGROUND: Sepsis, is a life-threatening syndrome triggered by infection. Bile acid metabolism may be involved in the pathogenesis of sepsis, the underlying association has not yet been elucidated. Thus, we aimed to screen for bile acid metabolism-related biomarkers of sepsis and discover the potential association. METHODS: Sepsis-related datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus ...
