With the expression profiles of these nine genes, we initially developed a PAH diagnostic signature (PDS) consisting of LRRN4, PI15, BICC1, PDE1A, TSHZ2, HMCN1, COL14A1, CCDC80, and ABCB1 in GSE117261 and then validated this signature in GSE113439. This evidence concerns the gene PI15 and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
