| Abstract: | Background: Sciatica is a phrase used to describe radiating leg discomfort. The most common cause is lumbar disc herniation (LDH), which is considered to start in the nucleus pulposus. Advancements in lipidomics and metabolomics have unveiled the complex role of fatty acid metabolism (FAM) in both healthy and pathological states. However, the specific roles of fatty acid metabolism-related genes (FAMGs) in shaping therapeutic approaches, especially in LDH, remain largely unexplored and are a subject of ongoing research. Methods: The junction of the weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) test with 6 FAMGs enabled the finding of FAMGs. Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) was used to identify the possible biological activities and pathways of FAMGs. LASSO was used to determine diagnostic effectiveness of the four FAMGs in diagnosing LDH. GSE124272, GSE147383, GSE150408, and GSE153761 were utilized to confirm the levels of expression of four FAMGs. Results: Four FAMGs were discovered [Acyl-CoA Thioesterase 4 (ACOT4), Cytochrome P450 Family 4 Subfamily A Member 11 (CYP4A11), Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Long Chain (ACADL), Enoyl-CoA Hydratase and 3-Hydroxyacyl CoA Dehydrogenase (EHHADH)] For biological function analysis, mhc class ib receptor activity, response to thyroxine, response to l phenylalanine derivative were emphasized. Conclusions: FAMGs can help with prognosis and immunology, and provide evidence for fatty acid metabolism-related targeted therapeutics. In LDH, FAMGs and their interactions with immune cells might be therapeutic targets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
