Genome-wide analysis of dysregulated RNA-binding proteins and alternative splicing genes in keloid.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: The pathogenesis of keloids remains unclear. Methods: In this study, we analyzed RNA-Seq data (GSE113619) of the local skin tissue of 8 keloid-prone individuals (KPI) and 6 healthy controls (HC) before and 42 days after trauma from the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database. The differential alternative splicing (AS) events associated with trauma healing between KPIs and HCs were identifified, and their functional differences were analyzed by gene ontology (GO) and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathways. The co-expression relationship of differentially alternative splicing genes and differentially expressed RNA binding proteins (RBPs) was established subsequently. Results: A total of 674 differential AS events between the KD42 and the KD0
