Identification and validation of up-regulated TNFAIP6 in osteoarthritis with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: Lines of evidence have indicated that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an independent risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) progression. However, the study focused on the relationship between T2DM and OA at the transcriptional level remains empty. We downloaded OA- and T2DM-related bulk RNA-sequencing and single-cell RNA sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset. Differential expression analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) were performed to screen out hub genes between OA and T2DM, and functional enrichment was done. Single-cell sequencing analysis was further used to screen key genes on OA and T2DM datasets. Rat chondrocytes and human articular cartilage were used to validate biomarkers among OA and T2DM. Sixty-eight hub genes were obtaine
