The Gene Network Correlation Analysis of Obesity to Type 1 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disorders: An Interactome-Based Bioinformatics Approach

The current study focuses on the importance of Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) in biological processes and the potential of targeting PPIs as a new treatment strategy for diseases. Specifically, the study explores the cross-links of PPIs network associated with obesity, type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), and cardiac disease (CD), which is an unexplored area of research. The research aimed to understand the role of highly connected proteins in the network and their potential as drug targets. The methodology for this research involves retrieving genes from the NCBI online gene database, intersecting genes among three diseases (type 1 diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular) using Interactivenn, determining suitable drug molecules using NetworkAnalyst, and performing various bioinformatics analyses such as Generic Protein-Protein Interactions, topological properties analysis, function enrichment analysis in terms of GO, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), gene co-expression network, and protein drug as well as protein chemical interaction network. The study focuses on human subjects. The results of this study identified 12 genes [VEGFA (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A), IL6 (Interleukin 6), MTHFR (Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase), NPPB (Natriuretic Peptide B), RAC1 (Rac Family Small GTPase 1), LMNA (Lamin A/C), UGT1A1 (UDP-glucuronosyltransferase family 1 membrane A1), RETN (Resistin), GCG (Glucagon), NPPA (Natriuretic Peptide A), RYR2 (Ryanodine receptor 2), and PRKAG2 (Protein Kinase AMP-Activated Non-Catalytic Subunit Gamma 2)] that were shared across the three diseases and could be used as key proteins for protein-drug/chemical interaction. Additionally, the study provides an in-depth understanding of the complex molecular and biological relationships between the three diseases and the cellular mechanisms that lead to their development. Potentially significant implications for the therapy and management of various disorders are highlighted by the findings of this study by improving treatment efficacy, simplifying treatment regimens, cost-effectiveness, better understanding of the underlying mechanism of these diseases, early diagnosis, and introducing personalized medicine. In conclusion, the current study provides new insights into the cross-links of PPIs network associated with obesity, T1DM, and CD, and highlights the potential of targeting PPIs as a new treatment strategy for these prevalent diseases.
