Comparative analysis of gene expression profiles in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that is typically diagnosed in children. The aim of the present study was to identify potential genes involved in the pathogenesis of childhood T1D. Two datasets of mRNA expression in children with T1D were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in children with T1D were identified. Functional analysis was performed and a protein‑protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed, as was a transcription factor (TF)‑target network. The expression of selected DEGs was further assessed using reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR) analysis. Electronic validation and diagnostic value analysis of the identified DEGs [cytokine inducible SH2 containing protein (CISH), SR‑re
