Identification and analysis of key immunity-related genes in experimental ischemic stroke.

ABSTRACT: The regulation of the immune system and the occurrence of inflammation are vital factors in the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke. This study aims to screen target molecules which play key roles in alleviating the brain injury following ischemic stroke via regulating neuroinflammation. Several bioinformatics methods were used to identify immune-related genes in ischemic stroke. A total of 218 genes were identified as differentially expressed genes within the GSE97537 dataset. By performing GO, KEGG, and GSEA analyses, DEGs were mainly enriched in pathways related to immunity and inflammation. By utilizing the MCODE plugin in conjunction with Cytoscape software, a total of six crucial genes were identified, including C1qb, C1qc, Fcer1g, Fcgr3a, Tyrobp, and CD14. Based on the above crucial
