Exploring the role of PANoptosis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis based on scRNA-seq and bulk-seq.

ABSTRACT: PANoptosis is a novel form of programmed cell death that integrates pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis; in this study, we combined the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) dataset GSE227136 with transcriptome data to elucidate its role in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) pathogenesis. PANoptosis-related genes were compiled from GeneCards and published literature. Consensus clustering was used to identify distinct PANoptosis-related clusters of IPF in the GEO dataset based on filtered PANoptosis-related differentially expressed genes (PRDEGs). Specific hub genes were identified using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and two machine learning methodologies, which were used to develop predictive models. The inflammatory programmed cell death score (PANoptosis score
