Abstract

Monkeypox (Mpox) is a major global human health threat after COVID-19. Its treatment becomes complicated with type-2 diabetes (T2D). It may happen due to the influence of both disease-causing common host key genes (cHKGs). Therefore, it is necessary to explore both disease-causing cHKGs to reveal their shared pathogenetic mechanisms and candidate drugs as their common treatments without adverse side effect. This study aimed to address these issues. At first, 3 transcriptomics datasets for each of Mpox and 6 T2D datasets were analyzed and found 52 common host differentially expressed genes (cHDEGs) that can separate both T2D and Mpox patients from the control samples. Then top-ranked six cHDEGs (HSP90AA1, B2M, IGF1R, ALD1HA1, ASS1, and HADHA) were detected as the T2D-causing cHKGs that are associated with the complexity of Mpox through the protein-protein interaction network analysis. Then common pathogenetic processes between T2D and Mpox were disclosed by cHKG-set enrichment analysis with biological processes, molecular functions, cellular components and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways, and regulatory network analysis with transcription factors and microRNAs. Finally, cHKG-guided top-ranked three drug molecules (tecovirimat, vindoline, and brincidofovir) were recommended as the repurposable common therapeutic agents for both Mpox and T2D by molecular docking. The absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity and drug-likeness analysis of these drug molecules indicated their good pharmacokinetics properties. The 100-ns molecular dynamics simulation results (root mean square deviation, root mean square fluctuation, and molecular mechanics generalized born surface area) with the top-ranked three complexes ASS1-tecovirimat, ALDH1A1-vindoline, and B2M-brincidofovir exhibited good pharmacodynamics properties. Therefore, the results provided in this article might be important resources for diagnosis and therapies of Mpox patients who are also suffering from T2D.

摘要

猴痘(Mpox)是继新冠疫情之后对全球人类健康的一大威胁。其治疗因2型糖尿病(T2D)而变得复杂。这可能是由于两种致病的常见宿主关键基因(cHKGs)的影响所致。因此,有必要探索这两种致病的cHKGs,以揭示它们共同的致病机制,并寻找作为其共同治疗方法且无不良副作用的候选药物。本研究旨在解决这些问题。首先,对猴痘的3个转录组学数据集和6个2型糖尿病数据集进行了分析,发现了52个常见宿主差异表达基因(cHDEGs),这些基因可以将2型糖尿病患者和猴痘患者与对照样本区分开来。然后,通过蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用网络分析,检测到排名前六位的cHDEGs(HSP90AA1、B2M、IGF1R、ALD1HA1、ASS1和HADHA)为导致2型糖尿病的cHKGs,它们与猴痘的复杂性相关。然后,通过对生物过程、分子功能、细胞成分和京都基因与基因组百科全书途径的cHKG集富集分析,以及对转录因子和微小RNA的调控网络分析,揭示了2型糖尿病和猴痘之间的共同致病过程。最后,通过分子对接,推荐排名前三位的cHKG导向药物分子(特考韦瑞、长春花碱和布林西多福韦)作为猴痘和2型糖尿病的可重新利用的共同治疗药物。这些药物分子的吸收、分布、代谢、排泄、毒性和类药性分析表明它们具有良好的药代动力学性质。排名前三位的复合物ASS1-特考韦瑞、ALDH1A1-长春花碱和B2M-布林西多福韦的100纳秒分子动力学模拟结果(均方根偏差、均方根波动和分子力学广义Born表面积)显示出良好的药效学性质。因此,本文提供的结果可能是诊断和治疗同时患有2型糖尿病的猴痘患者的重要资源。
