Integrated single cell-RNA sequencing and Mendelian randomization for ischemic stroke and metabolic syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Although more and more evidence has supported that metabolic syndrome (MS) is linked to ischemic stroke (IS), the molecular mechanism and genetic association between them has not been investigated. Here, we combined the existing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data and mendelian randomization (MR) for stroke to understand the role of dysregulated metabolism in stroke. The shared hub genes were identified with machine learning and WGCNA. A total of six upregulated DEGs and five downregulated genes were selected for subsequent analyses. Nine genes were finally identified with random forest, Lasso regression, and XGBoost method as a potential diagnostic model. scRNA-seq also show the abnormal glycolysis level in most cell clusters in stroke and associated with the expression level of h
