Identification of metabolic biomarkers associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease. Metabolism-related genes significantly influence the onset and progression of the disease. Hence, it is necessary to screen metabolism-related biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of NAFLD patients.

Methods

GSE48452, GSE63067, and GSE89632 datasets including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and healthy controls (HC) analyzed in this study were retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. First, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between NASH and HC samples were obtained. Next, metabolism-related DEGs (MR-DEGs) were identified by overlapping DEGs and metabolism-related genes (MRG). Further, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was developed to show the intera
