{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), a widespread genetic heart disorder, is largely associated with sudden cardiac fatality. Necroptosis, an emerging type of programmed cell death, plays a fundamental role in several cardiovascular diseases.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This research utilized bioinformatics analysis to investigate necroptosis's implication in HCM.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The study retrieved RNA sequencing datasets GSE130036 and GSE141910 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. It detected necroptosis-linked differentially expressed genes (NRDEGs) by reviewing both the gene set for necroptosis and the differently expressed genes (DEGs). The enriched signaling pathway of HCM was assessed using GSEA, while common DEGs were studied through Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways. Concurrently, the Protein-Protein Interaction network (PPI) proved useful for identifying central genes. CIBERSORT facilitated evaluating the correlation between distinct immune cell-type prevalence and NRDEGs by analyzing immune infiltration patterns. Lastly, GSE141910 dataset validated the expression ranks of NRDEGs and immune-cell penetration.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The investigation disclosed significant enrichment and activation of the necroptosis pathway in HCM specimens. Seventeen diverse genes, including CYBB, BCL2, and JAK2 among others, were identified in the process. PPI network scrutiny classified nine of these genes as central genes. Results from GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed substantial connections of these genes to pathways pertaining to the HIF-1 signaling track, necroptosis, and NOD-like receptor signaling process. Moreover, an imbalance in M2 macrophage cells in HCM samples was observed. Finally, CYBB, BCL2, and JAK2 emerged as vital genes and were validated using the GSE141910 dataset.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>These results indicate necroptosis as a probable underlying factor in HCM, with immune cell infiltration playing a part. Additionally, CYBB, BCL2, JAK2 could act as potential biomarkers for recognizing HCM. This information forms crucial insights into the basic mechanisms of HCM and could enhance its diagnosis and management.
