Development and Validation of Robust Ferroptosis-Related Genes in Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: Despite the evidence that ferroptosis is involved in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MIR), the critical regulator of ferroptosis in MIR remains unclear. (2) Methods: We included three GEO datasets and a set of ferroptosis-related genes with 259 genes. Following the identification of the differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes (DEFRGs) and hub genes, we performed the functional annotation, protein-protein interaction network, and immune infiltration analysis. The GSE168610 dataset, a cell model, and an animal model were then used to verify key genes. (3) Results: We identified 17 DEFRGs and 9 hub genes in the MIR samples compared to the control. Heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox1), activating transcription factor 3 (Atf3), epidermal growth factor receptor (Egfr), and X-box
