Concerns regarding chronic injuries (e.g., fibrosis and carcinogenesis) induced by nanoparticles raised public health concerns and need to be rapidly assessed in hazard identification. Although in silico analysis is commonly used for risk assessment ...
Based on bioinformatics and machine learning methods, we conducted a study to screen the core genes of minimal change disease (MCD) and further explore its pathogenesis. First, we obtained the chip data sets GSE108113 and GSE200828 from the Gene Expr...

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is an escalating global health issue, characterized by rising rates of morbidity and mortality annually. Consequently, further investigation of potential damage mechanisms and potential preventive strategies for PF...
Hypertrophic scar (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix, and the mechanisms underlying their formation remain poorly understood. We analysed scRNA-seq data from samples of normal sk...

Epidemiological evidence presents that dust storms are related to respiratory diseases, such as pulmonary fibrosis (PF). However, the precise underlying mechanisms of SPM-elicited adverse effects still need to be investigated. Epithelial-mesenchymal ...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate molecular mechanisms mediating anti-fibrotic effect of SAHA in the canine cornea using an in vitro model. We hypothesized that SAHA attenuates corneal fibrosis by modulating Smad-dependent and, to a lesser extent, Smad-indep...
This study employed bioinformatics to investigate potential molecular markers associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and examined their correlation with immune-infiltrating cells. Microarray data for IPF were retrieved from the Gene Expr...
