Objective: Osteosarcoma is one of the most common types of bone sarcoma with a poor prognosis. However, identifying the predictive factors that contribute to the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy remains a significant challenge.

Methods: A public data series (GSE87437) was downloaded to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) between osteosarcoma patients that do and do not respond to preoperative chemotherapy. Subsequently, functional analysis of the transcriptome expression profile, regulatory networks of DEGs and DElncRNAs, competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) and protein-protein interaction networks were performed. Furthermore, the function, pathway, and survival analysis of hub genes was performed and drug and disease relationship prediction of DElncRNA was carried out.

Results: A total of 626 DEGs, 26 DElncRNAs, and 18 hub genes were identified. However, only one gene and two lncRNAs were found to be suitable as candidate gene and lncRNAs respectively.

Conclusion: The DEGs, hub genes, candidate gene, and candidate lncRNAs screened out in this context were considered as potential biomarkers for the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy of osteosarcoma.

Background: Atherosclerosis (AS) is increasingly recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease that significantly compromises vascular health and acts as a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases. Advancements in lipidomics and metabolomics have unveiled the complex role of fatty acid metabolism (FAM) in both healthy and pathological states. However, the specific roles of fatty acid metabolism-related genes (FAMGs) in shaping therapeutic approaches, especially in AS, remain largely unexplored and are a subject of ongoing research.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is the most prevalent dilated arterial aneurysm that poses a significant threat to older adults, but the molecular mechanisms linking senescence to AAA progression remain poorly understood. This study aims to identify cellular senescence-related genes (SRGs) implicated in AAA development and assess their potential as therapeutic targets. Four hundred and twenty-nine differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from the GSE57691 training set, and 867 SRGs were obtained.

This study identifies microRNAs (miRNAs) with significant discriminatory power in distinguishing melanoma from nevus, notably hsa-miR-26a and hsa-miR-211, which have exhibited diagnostic potential with accuracy of 81% and 78% respectively. To enhance diagnostic accuracy, we integrated miRNAs into various machine-learning (ML) models. Incorporating miRNAs with AUC scores above 0.
