Identification of Novel Hub Genes Associated with Psoriasis Using Integrated Bioinformatics Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Psoriasis is a chronic, prolonged, and recurrent inflammatory skin disease and the current therapeutics can only alleviate the symptoms rather than cure it completely. Therefore, we aimed to identify the molecular signatures and specific biomarkers of psoriasis to provide novel clues for psoriasis and targeted therapy. In the present study, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used to retrieve three microarray datasets (GSE166388, GSE50790 and GSE42632) and to explore the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in psoriasis using the Affy package in R software. The gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome (KEGG) pathway enrichment were utilized to determine the common DEGs and their capabilities. The STRING database was used to develop DEG-encoded proteins and a
