Background: To explore the key genes in renal tubular necrosis.
Methods: Microarray datasets GSE69644, GSE27168, and GSE2027 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and we performed functional enrichment analysis. The network of protein interaction and gene interaction was constructed, and the module analysis was conducted using Cytoscape.
Results: A total of 543 DEGs and 13 hub genes were identified. The correlation analysis between the hub genes and the clinical characteristics of tubular necrosis indicated that the patients with high expression of SPAG5 and BIRC5 had better renal function. Patients with high expression of , and had poor renal function. Four of those hub genes participate in the cell cycle, apoptosis, and mismatch repair by regulating important genes in the pathway.
Conclusions: Our study suggests that , and participate in the cell cycle, apoptosis, and mismatch repair during renal tubule necrosis (RTN) and have an impact on renal function.

Purpose: To detect the prognostic importance of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) in lung adenocarcinoma.
Methods: The gene expression files, copy number variation data, and clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort. LLPS-related genes were acquired from the DrLLPS website.

Background: Osteoporosis (OP) is a skeletal condition characterized by increased susceptibility to fractures. Programmed cell death (PCD) is the orderly process of cells ending their own life that has not been thoroughly explored in relation to OP.
Objective: This study is to investigate PCD-related genes in OP, shedding light on potential mechanisms underlying the disease.

Background: Diabetic erectile dysfunction (DMED) has a high incidence and is poorly treated.
Aim: This study investigates fibrosis's genetic profiling and explores potential mechanisms for DMED.
Methods: The DMED model was constructed in rats using streptozotocin.

Background: Plasma membrane tension-related genes (MTRGs) are known to play a crucial role in tumor progression by influencing cell migration and adhesion. However, their specific mechanisms in bladder cancer (BLCA) remain unclear.
Methods: Transcriptomic, clinical and mutation data from BLCA patients were collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases.
Objectives: To identify cuproptosis- and ferroptosis-related genes involved in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and to determine the diagnostic value of hub genes.
Methods: The gene expression dataset GSE89632 was retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) group and the healthy group using the 'limma' package in R software and weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Gene ontology, kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway, and single-sample gene set enrichment analyses were performed to identify functional enrichment of DEGs.
