IL17A and cytomegalovirus infection: KEGG pathway analysis revealed that the upregulated DEGs were mainly enriched in the Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathway, Salmonella infection, viral protein interaction with cytokine and cytokine receptor, NF-kappa B signaling pathway, human cytomegalovirus infection, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, rheumatoid arthritis, IL-17 signaling pathway, chemokine signaling pathway, chagas disease, cytosolic DNA-sensing pathway, and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications (Supplementary Figure 2A).
