Identification of Three Significant Genes Associated with Immune Cells Infiltration in Dysfunctional Adipose Tissue-Induced Insulin-Resistance of Obese Patients via Comprehensive Bioinformatics Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Low-grade chronic inflammation in dysfunctional adipose tissue links obesity with insulin resistance through the activation of tissue-infiltrating immune cells. Numerous studies have reported on the pathogenesis of insulin-resistance. However, few studies focused on genes from genomic database. In this study, we would like to explore the correlation of genes and immune cells infiltration in adipose tissue via comprehensive bioinformatics analyses and experimental validation in mice and human adipose tissue.

Methods

Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets (GSE27951, GSE55200, and GSE26637) of insulin-resistant individuals or type 2 diabetes patients and normal controls were downloaded to get differently expressed genes (DEGs), and GO and KEGG pathway analyses were p
