Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen and it is associated with chronic hepatitis E virus infection (CHE) in immuno-suppressed patients due to failure of viral clearance. A network of the CHE-associated-differentially expressed genes (DEGs) is known. Hence, a comprehensive assessment of the known protein-protein interaction (PPI) network is of interest. After network clustering, the hub gene-associated microRNAs (miRNAs) were explored and subsequently, these identified miRNAs (miR-129-2-3p, miR-130a-3p, miR-138-5p, miR-212-3p, miR-221-3p, miR-27b-3p and miR-29c-3p) were undertaken for enrichment analysis. It should be noted that these miRNAs are significantly associated with Hepatitis E virus infection for further validation and analysis.
戊型肝炎病毒(HEV)是一种新出现的人畜共患病原体,在免疫抑制患者中,由于病毒清除失败,它与慢性戊型肝炎病毒感染(CHE)相关。已知一个与CHE相关的差异表达基因(DEG)网络。因此,对已知的蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用(PPI)网络进行全面评估具有重要意义。在网络聚类后,探索了与枢纽基因相关的微小RNA(miRNA),随后,对这些鉴定出的miRNA(miR-129-2-3p、miR-130a-3p、miR-138-5p、miR-212-3p、miR-221-3p、miR-27b-3p和miR-29c-3p)进行了富集分析。应该指出的是,这些miRNA与戊型肝炎病毒感染显著相关,有待进一步验证和分析。
