KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the candidate targets were mainly associated with signaling pathways such as metabolism, inflammation, and immunity, such as Insulin signaling pathway, insulin resistance, C-type lectin receptor signaling pathway, Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, Th17 cell differentiation, MAPK signaling pathway, Ras signaling pathway, Natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity, and T cell receptor signaling pathway (Figure 3C). Here, CLEC4D is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
