METHODS: RNA sequencing results (GSE267388 and GSE79962) were used for cross-species integrative analysis. Bioinformatic analyses were used to delve into function, tissue- and cell- specificity, and interactions of genes. External datasets and qRT-PCR experiments were used for validation. L1000 FWD was used to predict targeted drugs, and 3D structure files were used for molecular docking.
RESULTS: Based on bioinformatic analyses, ten differentially expressed genes were selected as genes of interest, seven of which were verified to be significantly differential expression. Bucladesine was considered as a potential targeted drug for SIMD, which banded to seven target proteins primarily by forming hydrogen bonds.
CONCLUSIONS: It was considered that Cebpd, Timp1, Pnp, Osmr, Tgm2, Cp, and Asb2 were novel disease genes, while bucladesine was a potential therapeutic drug, of SIMD.
