Subsequently, the correlation analysis of hub genes and GSVA scores showed that hub genes had a significantly positive correlation with 11 common activated pathways including the “hematopoietic cell lineage,” “autoimmune thyroid disease,” “cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction,” “toll-like receptor signaling pathway,” “JAK/STAT signaling pathway,” “graft-versus-host disease,” and “antigen processing and presentation” in GSE125733 (Figures 7B, C). Here, SOAT1 is linked to autoimmune thyroid disease.
