Integrated bioinformatic analysis of microarray data reveals shared gene signature between MDS and AML.

ABSTRACT: Myeloid disorders, especially myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), cause significant mobility and high mortality worldwide. Despite numerous attempts, the common molecular events underlying the development of MDS and AML remain to be established. In the present study, 18 microarray datasets were selected, and a meta-analysis was conducted to identify shared gene signatures and biological processes between MDS and AML. Using NetworkAnalyst, 191 upregulated and 139 downregulated genes were identified in MDS and AML, among which, PTH2R, TEC, and GPX1 were the most upregulated genes, while MME, RAG1, and CD79B were mostly downregulated. Comprehensive functional enrichment analyses revealed oncogenic signaling related pathway, fibroblast g
