Background: The most common cause of death in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) are major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), including myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. However, data on biomarkers that could be used to help predict MACEs in patients with PAD to guide clinical decision making is limited. Angiogenesis-related proteins have been demonstrated to play an important role in systemic atherosclerosis and may act as prognostic biomarkers for MACEs in patients with PAD.

Liver and lung are the most common metastatic sites in colorectal cancer (CRC), where the tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in the progression and metastasis of CRC. Understanding the interactions between various types of cells in the TME can suggest innovative therapeutic strategies. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) and clinical samples, fibroblast growth factor-19 (FGF19, rodent FGF15) is found to mediate a significant interaction between CRC cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), activating the hepatic stellate cells (HSCs)-to-CAFs differentiation.

Background: Glycolysis plays a major role in progression of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Here, we aim to explore the predictive signature based on glycolysis-related genes for predicting the prognosis and identified a potential therapeutic target for IPF.

Methods: Gene expression data of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells and clinical information were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.
