The objective of this research was to investigate whether or if there is a connection between genes associated with pyroptosis and novel approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of NASH. The mRNA expression patterns of the gene expression dataset GSE135251 integrated (GEO) database were analyzed, and a total of 60 genes related to scorch death were extracted and included in the PubMed database. Methods from the field of bioinformatics were utilized to investigate the degrees to which differentially expressed genes and pyroptosis-related genes differed between NASH patients and healthy controls. As a result of this, the Centre for Genetic Research has now come around to accepting enrichment and PPI interaction analyses. GSE89632 and NASH models were evaluated, trained, qualified, and validated by 18 of the links between the expression of hub genes. PLCG1 expression raised NASH in the progress of the disease. PLCG1 expression levels were then validated by Western Blot and qRT-PCR in FFA-induced HepG2 cells and mouse liver tissues. An analysis of mRNA expression of cleaved-caspase 3, GSDMD, and GSDME in NASH models. In addition, the PLCG1based diagnostic model successfully discriminated NASH from normal samples. Collectively, our results imply that PLCG1 is significantly associated with NASH and may be a biomarker for pyroptosis-related disease.
本研究旨在探讨与细胞焦亡相关的基因与 NASH 的诊断和治疗新方法之间是否存在联系。分析了 GEO 数据库中基因表达数据集 GSE135251 的 mRNA 表达模式,共提取了 60 个与 scorch 死亡相关的基因,并将其纳入 PubMed 数据库。利用生物信息学领域的方法,研究了 NASH 患者和健康对照组之间差异表达基因和细胞焦亡相关基因的差异程度。结果表明,遗传研究中心现在已经开始接受富集和 PPI 相互作用分析。通过 18 个 hub 基因之间的表达关系对 GSE89632 和 NASH 模型进行了评估、训练、资格认证和验证。PLCG1 表达在疾病进展中导致 NASH。然后通过 Western Blot 和 qRT-PCR 在 FFA 诱导的 HepG2 细胞和小鼠肝组织中验证了 PLCG1 的表达。分析 NASH 模型中 cleaved-caspase 3、GSDMD 和 GSDME 的 mRNA 表达。此外,基于 PLCG1 的诊断模型成功地区分了 NASH 与正常样本。总之,我们的研究结果表明,PLCG1 与 NASH 显著相关,可能是细胞焦亡相关疾病的生物标志物。
