The role of oxidative stress-related genes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

ABSTRACT: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an age-related interstitial lung disease of unknown cause. Oxidative stress, an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, is implicated in IPF pathogenesis and prognosis but needs further study. We used transcriptome sequencing data (GSE70866) and oxidative stress-related genes from GeneCards. A prognostic risk model for IPF patients was constructed using LASSO. Functional and pathway differences were analyzed between risk score groups, along with comparisons of immune cells and functions. An IPF rat model with vitamin D3 (VD3) intervention was also established. Finally, we used IL-4 to induce M2 macrophages to explore the mechanism of action of CCL2. We identified 483 DEGs and 50 oxidative stress-related DEGs (OSDEGs). Single-factor COX regression
