Type 1 diabetes is a prevalent autoimmune disease of which the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. The aim of the study was to identify dysregulated modules of type 1 diabetes. After microarray data were preprocessed, 20,545 genes were obtained. By integrating gene expression data and protein-protein interactions (PPI) data, 48,778 new networks were obtained, including 7,953 genes. After simplifying networks, we obtained 24 target networks. By ranking networks with P-values, two modules with P<0.05 were identified, including the genes, and . Module 2 was part of module 1. The identified modules and genes may provide new insights into the underlying biological mechanisms that drive the progression of type 1 diabetes.
1型糖尿病是一种常见的自身免疫性疾病,其潜在机制仍有待阐明。本研究的目的是识别1型糖尿病中失调的模块。对微阵列数据进行预处理后,获得了20545个基因。通过整合基因表达数据和蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用(PPI)数据,获得了48778个新网络,包括7953个基因。在简化网络后,我们获得了24个目标网络。通过用P值对网络进行排序,鉴定出两个P<0.05的模块,包括基因 和 。模块2是模块1的一部分。所鉴定的模块和基因可能为驱动1型糖尿病进展的潜在生物学机制提供新的见解。
