The expression of nine genes [polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4), centromere protein U, kinesin family member 20B, structural maintenance of chromosome 2 (SMC2), abnormal spindle microtubule assembly, Fanconi Anemia complementation group I, kinesin family member 18A, spindle apparatus coiled-coil protein 1, and MIS18 binding protein 1] was elevated in PAH; this was statistically significant compared with their expression in healthy lung tissue, and they were identified as hub genes. This evidence concerns the gene CENPU and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
