ABSTRACT

Aim: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a heterogeneous disorder with high morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs, representing a major burden on public health. Here, we aimed to improve our understanding of the genetic drivers of ferroptosis and necroptosis and the clustering of gene expression in CAD in order to develop novel personalized therapies to slow disease progression. Methods: CAD datasets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus. The identification of ferroptosis- and necroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and the consensus clustering method including the classification algorithm used km and distance used spearman were performed to differentiate individuals with CAD into two clusters (cluster A and cluster B) based expression matrix of DEGs. Next, we identified four subgroup-specific genes of significant difference between cluster A and B and again divided individuals with CAD into gene cluster A and gene cluster B with same methods. Additionally, we compared differences in clinical information between the subtypes separately. Finally, principal component analysis algorithms were constructed to calculate the cluster-specific gene score for each sample for quantification of the two clusters. Results: In total, 25 ferroptosis- and necroptosis-related DEGs were screened. The genes in cluster A were mostly related to the neutrophil pathway, whereas those in cluster B were mostly related to the B-cell receptor signaling pathway. Moreover, the subgroup-specific gene scores and CAD indices were higher in cluster A and gene cluster A than in cluster B and gene cluster B. We also identified and validated two genes showing upregulation between clusters A and B in a validation dataset. Conclusion: High expression of CBS and TLR4 was related to more severe disease in patients with CAD, whereas LONP1 and HSPB1 expression was associated with delayed CAD progression. The identification of genetic subgroups of patients with CAD may improve clinician knowledge of disease pathogenesis and facilitate the development of methods for disease diagnosis, classification, and prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Identifying biomarkers for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is key to understanding their pathogenesis, developing novel targeted therapeutics, and possibly improving patients outcomes and risk of rupture. Here, we identified AAA biomarkers from public databases using single-cell RNA-sequencing, weighted co-expression network (WGCNA), and differential expression analyses. Additionally, we used the multiple machine learning methods to identify biomarkers that differentiated large AAA from small AAA. Biomarkers were validated using GEO datasets. CIBERSORT was used to assess immune cell infiltration into AAA tissues and investigate the relationship between biomarkers and infiltrating immune cells. Therefore, 288 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened for AAA and normal samples. The identified DEGs were mostly related to inflammatory responses, lipids, and atherosclerosis. For the large and small AAA samples, 17 DEGs, mostly related to necroptosis, were screened. As biomarkers for AAA, G0/G1 switch 2 (G0S2) (Area under the curve [AUC] = 0.861, 0.875, and 0.911, in GSE57691, GSE47472, and GSE7284, respectively) and for large AAA, heparinase (HPSE) (AUC = 0.669 and 0.754, in GSE57691 and GSE98278, respectively) were identified and further verified by qRT-PCR. Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that the AAA process may be mediated by T follicular helper (Tfh) cells and the large AAA process may also be mediated by Tfh cells, M1, and M2 macrophages. Additionally, G0S2 expression was associated with neutrophils, activated and resting mast cells, M0 and M1 macrophages, regulatory T cells (Tregs), resting dendritic cells, and resting CD4 memory T cells. Moreover, HPSE expression was associated with M0 and M1 macrophages, activated and resting mast cells, Tregs, and resting CD4 memory T cells. Additional, G0S2 may be an effective diagnostic biomarker for AAA, whereas HPSE may be used to confer risk of rupture in large AAAs. Immune cells play a role in the onset and progression of AAA, which may improve its diagnosis and treatment.
