Moreover, these genes were also linked to multiple CAD-related cardiac disease pathways, such as “IL-17 signaling pathway,” “PI3K-Akt signaling pathway,” and “Fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis.” This evidence further suggested that the 32 CAD-related DE-EMT genes may play a role in the CAD process through a certain EMT mechanism. The gene discussed is IL17A; the disease is heart disorder.
