Landscape of the immune infiltration and identification of molecular diagnostic markers associated with immune cells in patients with kidney transplantation.

ABSTRACT: Rejection seriously affects the success of kidney transplantations. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this rejection remain unclear. The GSE21374 and GSE36059 datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Next, the Cell-type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of RNA Transcripts (CIBERSORT) algorithm was used to infer the proportions of 22 immune cells. Moreover, infiltrating immune cell-related genes were identified using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and enrichment analysis was conducted to observe their biological functions. Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) logistic regression algorithms were used to screen hub genes. Quantitative real-time PCR was cond
