MUC5AC and amebiasis: Additionally, these genes were classified into amoebiasis, ECM (Extracellular matrix)-receptor interaction, hematopoietic cell lineage, estrogen signaling pathway, linoleic acid metabolism, mucin-type o-glycan biosynthesis, ferroptosis, malaria, and arachidonic acid metabolism in the KEGG and GO enrichment analysis (Fig. 4B and C), and enriched in cellular component terms, including the apical part of the cell, apical plasma membrane, basal part of the cell, basolateral plasma membrane, basal plasma membrane, platelet alpha granule, and cornified envelope (Fig. 4C).
