IL17A and atherosclerosis: The top 10 possible BP items ordered by “gene ratio” were shown in Fig. 3A, including responses to oxidative stress, cellular responses to oxidative stress, metabolic processes of reactive oxygen species (ROS), etc. On the other hand, KEGG pathway analysis showed that baicalin-AS targets were mainly involved in human cytomegalovirus infection, IL-17 signaling pathway, fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis, etc. (Fig. 3B).
