PurposeThere is a bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to further explore the pathogenesis of this comorbidity, screen out ferroptosis-related genes involved in the pathological process, and predict potential drug targets to develop new therapeutic strategies.MethodsCommon cross-talk genes were identified from periodontitis datasets (GSE16134, GSE10334 and GSE106090) and T2DM databases (DisGeNET and GeneCard). Then, GO and KEGG enrichment analyses, PPI network analysis and hub gene identification were performed. The association between ferroptosis and periodontitis with T2DM was investigated by Pearson correlation analysis. Core ferroptosis-related cross-talk genes were identified and verified by qRT-PCR. Potential drugs targeting these core genes were predicted via DGIDB.ResultsIn total, 67 cross-talk genes and two main signalling pathways (immuno-inflammatory pathway and AGE-RAGE signalling pathway) were identified. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that ferroptosis served as a crucial target in the pathological mechanism and treatment of periodontitis with T2DM. IL-1β, IL-6, NFE2L2 and ALOX5 were identified as core ferroptosis-related genes and the qRT-PCR detection results were statistically different. In total, 13 potential drugs were screened out, among which, Echinacea and Ibudilast should be developed first.ConclusionsThis study contributes to a deeper understanding of the common pathogenesis of periodontitis and T2DM and provides new insights into the role of ferroptosis in this comorbidity. In addition, two drugs with potential clinical application value were identified. The potential utility of these drugs requires further experimental investigation. |
