Discovery of PANoptosis-related signatures correlates with immune cell infiltration in psoriasis.

Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease that relapses frequently. Keratinocyte apoptosis dysregulation plays a crucial role in the pathological mechanisms of psoriasis. PANoptosis is a process with intermolecular interaction among pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis.

Visualization Analysis of Artificial Intelligence Literature in Forensic Research.

Objectives: To analyze the literature on artificial intelligence in forensic research from 2012 to 2022 in the Web of Science Core Collection Database, to explore research hotspots and developmental trends.

Methods: A total of 736 articles on artificial intelligence in forensic medicine in the Web of Science Core Collection Database from 2012 to 2022 were visualized and analyzed through the literature measuring tool CiteSpace. The authors, institution, country (region), title, journal, keywords, cited references and other information of relevant literatures were analyzed.

Machine learning and molecular subtype analyses provide insights into PANoptosis-associated genes in rheumatoid arthritis.

Background: PANoptosis represents a newly identified form of programmed cell death that plays a significant role in the autoimmune diseases. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by the presence of autoantibodies. Nevertheless, the specific biomarkers and molecular mechanisms responsible for the apoptotic characteristics of RA remain largely uninvestigated.

Distinct molecular subtypes of systemic sclerosis and gene signature with diagnostic capability.

Background: As Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) is a connective tissue ailment that impacts various bodily systems. The study aims to clarify the molecular subtypes of SSc, with the ultimate objective of establishing a diagnostic model that can inform clinical treatment decisions.

Methods: Five microarray datasets of SSc were retrieved from the GEO database.

Genetic Evidence Supporting a Causal Association Between mTOR-Dependent EIF-4E Circulating Protein Level and Osteoporosis.

Introduction: The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) regulates bone homeostasis, a crucial factor in osteoporosis (OP) development. However, most research is based on observational studies, and the causality remains uncertain. Therefore, we analyzed two samples of mendelian randomization (MR) to determine whether there is a causal relationship between mTOR-dependent circulating proteins and OP.

A compendium of mitochondrial molecular characteristics provides novel perspectives on the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that exhibits a high degree of heterogeneity, marked by unpredictable disease flares and significant variations in the response to available treatments. The lack of optimal stratification for RA patients may be a contributing factor to the poor efficacy of current treatment options. The objective of this study is to elucidate the molecular characteristics of RA through the utilization of mitochondrial genes and subsequently construct and authenticate a diagnostic framework for RA.

Identification of immunity-related lncRNAs and construction of a ceRNA network of potential prognostic biomarkers in acute myeloid leukemia.

Using bioinformatics analyses, this study aimed to identify lncRNAs related to the immune status of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and ascertain the potential impact in immunity-related competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks on AML prognosis. AML-related RNA-seq FPKM data, AML-related miRNA expression microarray data, and gene sets associated with immunity-related pathways were, respectively, obtained from the TCGA, GEO, and ImmReg databases. An immunity-related ceRNA network was then constructed according to the predicted interactions between AML-related mRNAs, lncRNAs, and miRNAs.

Development and verification of a combined diagnostic model for primary Sjögren's syndrome by integrated bioinformatics analysis and machine learning.

Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease mostly affecting the exocrine glands. This debilitating condition is complex and specific treatments remain unavailable. There is a need for the development of novel diagnostic models for early screening.

Genetically Determined Levels of mTOR-Dependent Circulating Proteins and Risk of Multiple Sclerosis.

Background: Results from observational studies indicate an association between circulating levels of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-dependent circulating proteins and the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, a causal association has not been fully elucidated. Mendelian randomization (MR) is used to overcome limitations inherent to observational studies, assess the causal association, and minimize bias due to confounding and reverse causation.

[Construction of a Prognostic Model of Multiple Myeloma Based on Metabolism-Related Genes].

Objective: To screen the prognostic biomarkers of metabolic genes in patients with multiple myeloma (MM), and construct a prognostic model of metabolic genes.

Methods: The histological database related to MM patients was searched. Data from MM patients and healthy controls with complete clinical information were selected for analysis.

Tetramisole is a new I channel agonist and exerts I -dependent cardioprotective effects in rats.

Cardiac ischemia, hypoxia, arrhythmias, and heart failure share the common electrophysiological changes featured by the elevation of intracellular Ca (Ca overload) and inhibition of the inward rectifier potassium (I ) channel. I channel agonists have been considered a new type of anti-arrhythmia and cardioprotective agents. We predicted using a drug repurposing strategy that tetramisole (Tet), a known anthelminthic agent, was a new I channel agonist.

Characteristics of the Gut Microbiome and Its Relationship With Peripheral CD4 T Cell Subpopulations and Cytokines in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

This study investigated the association between intestinal microbiota abundance and diversity and cluster of differentiation (CD)4 T cell subpopulations, cytokine levels, and disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis RA. A total of 108 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and 99 healthy control (HC) subjects were recruited. PICRUSt2 was used for functional metagenomic predictions.
