Additionally, by integrating the LRGs with the upregulated and downregulated DEGs from the GSE100927 dataset, we identified 9 upregulated genes (FABP5, LSP1, IKZF1, MNDA, CRABP2, ARID3A, RCC2, WAS, and HMGA1) and 8 downregulated genes (CSRP2, PPP1CB, CSRP1, HIST1H1C, HEXIM1, CALD1, PDLIM1, and RANBP2) that are common to both DEGs and LRGs and are associated with atherosclerosis (Figures 2C, D). Here, CALD1 is linked to atherosclerosis.
