Specifically, the 12-week post-infection (12wpi) patient group exhibited a unique top ten differential gene expression profile that included the following genes: INSYNB, IMPDH1P10, SEMA3F-AS1, PZP, CFLAR-AS1, C5orf58, LOC124903574, TMEM14EP, LINC01890, and RBM5-AS1 (see supplementary data, Figure. Here, TMEM14EP is linked to infection.
