As shown in Fig. 2, SP1 promotes 7 inhibitors of stroke, including PTGS2, L10, IGF1, LEP, ENTPD1, HSPA1A and HIF1A. However, the literature-based pathways also suggested that SP1 could inhibit three stroke-promoters (IL1B, TGFB1, and ACE), which was not supported by the 11 datasets employed in this study (these genes demonstrated increased expression levels in the case of increased SP1 expression). Here, LEP is linked to stroke disorder.
