Integrative transcriptomic analysis and experimental validation identify GPR97 and PROK2 as novel genes upregulated in acute myocardial infarction
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major global health burden. Current diagnostic reliance on high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) is limited by its lack of disease specificity and inability to reveal upstream molecular and immune mechanisms. This study aimed to identify robust core genes and their functional...
