Comprehensive analysis of DNA methylation and gene expression profiles in gestational diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has a high prevalence during pregnancy. This research aims to identify genes and their pathways related to GDM by combining bioinformatics analysis.The DNA methylation and gene expression profiles data set was obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) and differentially methylated genes (DMG) were screened by R package limma. The methylation-regulated differentially expressed genes (MeDEGs) were obtained by overlapping the DEGs and DMGs. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using the search tool for searching interacting genes. The results are visualized in Cytoscape. Disease-related miRNAs and pathways were retrieved from Human MicroRNA Disease Database and Comparative Toxic Genome Data
