ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients have a higher risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) compared to the general population. However, the underlying common mechanism of this association is not fully understood. This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism of this complication.METHODS:
Gene expression profiles of SLE (GSE50772) and AMI (GSE66360) were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Common differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in SLE and AMI were identified, and functional annotation, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis, module construction, and hub gene identification were performed. Additionally, transcription factor (TF)-gene regulatory network and TF-miRNA regulatory network were constructed for the hub genes.RESULTS:
70 common DEGs (7 downregulated genes and 63 upregulated genes) were identified and were mostly enriched in signaling pathways such as the IL-17 signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, lipid metabolism, and atherosclerosis. Using cytoHubba, 12 significant hub genes were identified, including IL1B, TNF, FOS, CXCL8, JUN, PTGS2, FN1, EGR1, CXCL1, DUSP1, MMP9, and ZFP36.CONCLUSIONS:
This study reveals a common pathogenesis of SLE and AMI and provides new perspectives for further mechanism research. The identified common pathways and hub genes may have important clinical implications for the prevention and treatment of AMI in SLE patients.Palavras-chave
