Negative regulation of angiogenesis and the MAPK pathway may be a shared biological pathway between IS and epilepsy.

Ischemia stroke and epilepsy are two neurological diseases that have significant patient and societal burden, with similar symptoms of neurological deficits. However, the underlying mechanism of their co-morbidity are still unclear. In this study, we performed a combined analysis of six gene expression profiles (GSE58294, GSE22255, GSE143272, GSE88723, GSE163654, and GSE174574) to reveal the common mechanisms of IS and epilepsy.

Integrative analysis of single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing unveils the senescence landscape in ischemic stroke.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a fatal neurological disease that occurs when the blood flow to the brain is disrupted, leading to brain tissue damage and functional impairment. Cellular senescence, a vital characteristic of aging, is associated with a poor prognosis for IS. This study explores the potential role of cellular senescence in the pathological process following IS by analyzing transcriptome data from multiple datasets (GSE163654, GSE16561, GSE119121, and GSE174574).

Exploration of the potential common pathogenic mechanisms in COVID-19 and silicosis by using bioinformatics and system biology.

Silicosis is an occupational lung disease that is common worldwide. In recent years, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has provided daunting challenges to public healthcare systems globally. Although multiple studies have shown a close link between COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases, the inter-relational mechanisms between COVID-19 and silicosis remain unclear.

Experimental verification and comprehensive analysis of m7G methylation regulators in the subcluster classification of ischemic stroke.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a fatal cerebrovascular disease involving several pathological mechanisms. Modification of 7-methylguanosine (m7G) has multiple regulatory functions. However, the expression pattern and mechanism of m7G in IS remain unknown.

Experimental verification and validation of immune biomarkers based on chromatin regulators in ischemic stroke.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a disease characterized by rapid progression and high mortality and disability rates. Its pathophysiological process is inseparable from immune dysfunction. Recently, chromatin regulators (CRs) have been described as a class of enzymes that can recognize, form, and maintain the epigenetic state of an organism, and are closely associated with immune regulation.

Aloperine: A Potent Modulator of Crucial Biological Mechanisms in Multiple Diseases.

Aloperine is an alkaloid found in the seeds and leaves of the medicinal plant L. It has been used as herbal medicine in China for centuries due to its potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. Recently, aloperine has been widely investigated for its therapeutic activities.
