IL17A and atherosclerosis: In addition, KEGG pathway analysis revealed 30 significantly enriched pathways, including lipid and atherosclerosis, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K-Akt), liquid shear stress and atherosclerosis (fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis), interleukin-17 (IL-17 signaling pathway), TNF signaling pathway, calcium signaling pathway, and relaxin signaling pathway, as shown in Figure 5(b).
