POU class 2 homeobox associating factor 1 (POU2AF1) participates in abdominal aortic aneurysm enlargement based on integrated bioinformatics analysis

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is life-threatening, its natural course is progressively sac expansion and rupture. Elegant studies have been conducted to investigate the molecular markers associated with AAA growth and expansion, this topic however, still needs to be further elucidated. This study...

Firstly, 29 up-regulated genes were identified through DEGs analysis between large AAA and small AAA in GSE57691.

Merged gene set including 29 up-regulated DEGs and 858 green module genes was subjected to constructing a PPI network where 195 PPI hub genes were identified. Subsequently, 4 crucial genes including POU2AF1, FCRLA, CD79B, HLA-DOB were recognized by Venn plot. In addition, by using GSE7084 and GSE98278 for verification, POU2AF1 showed potential diagnostic value between AAA and normal groups, and exhibited a significant higher expression level in large AAA samples compared with small AAA samples. Furthermore, immunohistochemistry results indicated up-regulation of POU2AF1 in large AAA samples than small AAA samples, which implies POU2AF1 may be a key regulator in AAA enlargement and growth.
