Subsequently, 13 ferroptosis-related genes (DRD5, TSC22D3, TFAP2A, STMN1, DDIT3, MYCN, ELAVL1, JUN, DUSP1, MIB1, PSAT1, LCE2C, and MIR27A) were identified from the interaction between differentially expressed genes and FerrDb database, which are regarded as the potential targets of CPAP-treated OSA. This evidence concerns the gene MIR27A and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
