Abstract

Background: Patients with unstable angina (UA) are prone to myocardial infarction (MI) after an attack, yet the altered molecular expression profile therein remains unclear. The current work aims to identify the characteristic hypoxia-related genes associated with UA/MI and to develop a predictive model of hypoxia-related genes for the progression of UA to MI.

Methods And Results: Gene expression profiles were obtained from the GEO database. Then, differential expression analysis and the WGCNA method were performed to select characteristic genes related to hypoxia. Subsequently, all 10 hypoxia-related genes were screened using the Lasso regression model and a classification model was established. The area under the ROC curve of 1 shows its excellent classification performance and is confirmed on the validation set. In parallel, we construct a nomogram based on these genes, showing the risk of MI in patients with UA. Patients with UA and MI had their immunological status determined using CIBERSORT. These 10 genes were primarily linked to B cells and some inflammatory cells, according to correlation analysis.

Conclusion: Overall, GWAS identified that the CSTF2F UA/MI risk gene promotes atherosclerosis, which provides the basis for the design of innovative cardiovascular drugs by targeting CSTF2F.
