Abstract:
As one of the leading reason in morbidity and death in the world, atherosclerosis is usually associated with vessel stenosis, ulceration, and inflammatory cell infiltration. However, the formation mechanism of atheroma plaque is unknown. In this research, we have used bioinformatics tools to identify 118 differential expression genes from a GEO dataset. Besides, we also revealed KYNU as a crucial gene in atheroma plaque development.
