Exploring the relationship between sepsis and Golgi apparatus dysfunction: bioinformatics insights and diagnostic marker discovery by Wanli Ma, Xinyi Liu, Ran Yu, Jiannan Song, Lina Hou, Ying Guo, Hongwei Wu, Dandan Feng, Qi Zhou, Haibo Li

“…A diagnostic model constructed using five pivotal genes (B3GNT5, FUT11, MAN1C1, ST6GAL1, and C1GALT1C1) exhibited predictive accuracy, with AUC values exceeding 0.96 for all genes. Validation with an independent dataset confirmed the differential expression patterns of B3GNT5, C1GALT1C1, and GALNT14, reinforcing their potential as robust diagnostic biomarkers for sepsis.ConclusionThis study elucidates the link between sepsis and the Golgi apparatus, introduces novel biomarkers for sepsis diagnosis, and offers valuable insights for future research on its pathogenesis and treatment strategies.…”
