Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is one of the most important diseases in livestock, caused by BVD virus (BVDV). During the pathogenesis of the virus, many interactions occur between host and viral proteins. Studying these interactions can help better understand the pathogenesis of the virus, identify putative functional proteins, and find new treatment and prevention strategies. To this aim, a BVDV-host protein-protein interaction (PPI) network map was constructed using Cytoscape and analyzed with cytoHubba, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomics (KEGG), Gene Ontology (GO), and Protein Analysis Through Evolutionary Relationships (PANTHER). N with 125 connections had the greatest number of interactions with host proteins. , -2, and genes were detected as hub genes using different ranking algorithms in cytoHubba. BVDV interactions with its host mainly focus on targeting translation, protein synthesis, and cellular metabolism pathways. Different classes of proteins including translational proteins, nucleic acid metabolism proteins, metabolite interconversion enzymes, and protein-modifying enzymes are affected by BVDV. These findings improve our understanding of the effects of the virus on the cell. Hub genes and key pathways identified in the present study can serve as targets for novel BVDV prevention or treatment strategies.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive condition that arises from diverse etiological factors, resulting in structural alterations and functional impairment of the kidneys. We aimed to establish the Anoikis-related gene signature in CKD by bioinformatics analysis.

Methods: We retrieved 3 datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to obtain differentially expressed genes (DEGs), followed by Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA) of them, which were intersected with Anoikis-related genes (ARGs) to derive Anoikis-related differentially expressed genes (ARDEGs).

Background: Ferroptosis-related genes have been reported to play important roles in many diseases, but their molecular mechanisms in osteoporosis have not been elucidated.

Methods: Based on two independent GEO datasets (GSE35956 and GSE35958), and GSE35959 as the validation dataset, we comprehensively elucidated the pathological mechanism of ferroptosis-related genes in osteoporosis by GO analyses, KEGG analyses and a PPI network. Then, We used Western Blot (WB) and Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to verify the expression level of KMT2D, a ferroptosis-related hub gene, in clinical samples.

Objective: The present study delves into the exploration of diagnostic biomarkers linked with ferroptosis in the context of diabetic nephropathy, unraveling their underlying molecular mechanisms.

Methods: In this study, we retrieved datasets GSE96804 and GSE30529 as the training cohort, followed by screening for Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs). By intersecting these DEGs with known ferroptosisrelated genes, we obtained the differentially expressed genes related to ferroptosis (DEFGs).

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a significant global health challenge, emphasizing the need for precise identification of patients with specific therapeutic targets and those at high risk of metastasis. This study aimed to identify novel therapeutic targets for personalized treatment of TNBC patients by elucidating their roles in cell cycle regulation. Using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), we identified 83 hub genes by integrating gene expression profiles with clinical pathological grades.
