Potential ferroptosis key genes in calcific aortic valve disease.

ABSTRACT: Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a highly prevalent condition that comprises a disease continuum, ranging from microscopic changes to profound fibro-calcific leaflet remodeling, culminating in aortic stenosis, heart failure, and ultimately premature death. Ferroptosis has been hypothesized to contribute to the pathogenesis of CAVD. We aimed to study the association between ferroptosis genes and CAVD and reveal the potential roles of ferroptosis in CAVD. CAVD-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified via bioinformatic analysis of Datasets GSE51472 and GSE12644 obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus. A ferroptosis dataset containing 259 genes was obtained from the Ferroptosis Database. We then intersected with CAVD-related DEGs to identify the ferroptosis DEG
