Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks among the most widespread malignancies globally, with early detection significantly influencing prognosis. Employing a systems biology approach, we aimed to unravel the intricate mRNA-miRNA network linked to CRC pathogenesis, potentially yielding diagnostic biomarkers. Through an integrative analysis of microarray, Bulk RNA-seq, and single-cell RNA-seq data, we explored CRC-related transcriptomes comprehensively.

The diagnosis and prognosis of the patients are very poor. In this study, we used in-silico analysis and experimental techniques to investigate novel co-expression genes and their associated miRNA networks in CRC.

The current study aims to look into the molecular changes in the skin of AA patients as well as the potential underlying molecular mechanisms of AA in order to identify potential candidates for early detection and treatment of AA. We applied Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify key modules, hub genes, and mRNA-miRNA regulatory networks associated with AA.

The mechanism of Hb F induction by HU and improvement in clinical symptoms are still poorly understood. The current study aimed to improve the molecular understanding of drug-induced alterations and reveals genes related to HU treatment responsiveness in β-thalassemia (β-thal).

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a complex disorder with an inadequate response to treatment. Although many efforts have been made to clarify the development of GC, the exact etiology and molecular mechanisms of this malignancy remain unclear. This study was designed to identify and characterize essential associated genes with GC to construct a prognostic model.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Several serious attempts to treat colorectal cancer have been made in recent decades. However, no effective treatment has yet been discovered due to the complexities of its etiology.
Methods: we used Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify key modules, hub-genes, and mRNA-miRNA regulatory networks associated with CRC.
Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the worrisome gynecological cancers worldwide. Given its considerable mortality rate, it is necessary to investigate its oncogenesis.
Methods: In this study, we used systems biology approaches to describe the key gene modules, hub genes, and regulatory drugs associated with serous OC as the novel biomarkers using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA).

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the world's second-leading cause of cancer-related mortality, continuing to make it a serious healthcare concern. Even though the prevalence of GC reduces, the prognosis for GC patients remains poor in terms of a lack of reliable biomarkers to diagnose early GC and predict chemosensitivity and recurrence.
Methods And Material: We integrated the gene expression patterns of gastric cancers from four RNAseq datasets (GSE113255, GSE142000, GSE118897, and GSE130823) from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to recognize differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between normal and GC samples.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a plasticizer used widely in many industrial products and is now well established as an endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC). BPA readily leaches out from these products into the environment and into foodstuffs (from packaging materials) and human exposure can be considerable. Many studies have shown that BPA exposure is associated with a range of chronic human health conditions, including diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, polycystic ovarian disease, hepatotoxicity, and various types of cancer.
