Then, 10 SCFA metabolism-related genes in co-expression modules of stroke were obtained by taking the intersections of 241 co-expression module genes of stroke and 1220 SCFA metabolism-related genes, including HAS3, VIM, ZFP36L2, CPQ, F5, PIK3CG, KEAP1, BAK1, MIF, and BRAF (Fig. 7B). Here, ZFP36L2 is linked to stroke disorder.
