Identification of hub genes and immune-related pathways in acute myeloid leukemia: insights from bioinformatics and experimental validation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aims to identify the hub genes and immune-related pathways in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) to provide new theories for immunotherapy.

Methods

We use bioinformatics methods to find and verify the hub gene. At the same time, we use the results of GSEA enrichment analysis to find immune-related mediators. Through Mendelian randomization(MR) analysis, on the one hand, we look for related immune cells, and on the other hand, we use it to determine the causal relationship among immune cells, immune mediators, and AML. Finally, in vitro experiments are conducted to further verify and improve the reliability and physiological functions of the hub gene and its immune-related pathways.

Results

Complement Factor D(CFD) gene is identified as th
