Metabolic dysfunction has been demonstrated to contribute diabetic pain, pointing towards a potential correlation between glucose metabolism and pain. To investigate the relationship altered neuropathic we compared samples from healthy subjects with those intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) patients, utilizing data two public datasets. This led identification of 412 differentially expressed genes (DEG), which 234 were upregulated 178 downregulated. Among these, three key (Ins, Igfbp3, Plod2) found. Kyoto Encyclopedia Genes Genomes pathway analysis enrichment hub in pathways such as positive regulation ErbB signaling pathway, monocyte activation, response reactive oxygen species; thereby suggesting these biological pain sensation. Further identified Plod2), showed significant correlations immune cell infiltration, their roles modulating through response. validate our findings, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) confirmed expression levels partial sciatic nerve ligation (PSNL) model, immunofluorescence studies increased infiltration at injury site. Behavioral assessments further corroborated hypersensitivity (NP) models. Our study sheds light on molecular mechanisms underlying NP aids therapeutic targets for future drug development.

Abstract Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) exhibits heightened aggressiveness compared with other (BC) subtypes, earlier relapse, a higher risk of distant metastasis, and worse prognosis. Transcription factors play pivotal role in various cancers. Here, we found that factor forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) expression was significantly TNBC than BC subtypes normal tissues. Combining the findings Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis series experiments, knockdown FOXM1 gene attenuated ability cells to proliferate metastasize both vivo vitro. In addition, Spearman's test showed correlated glycolysis‐related genes, especially centromere protein A (CENPA) datasets (GSE76250, GSE76124, GSE206912, GSE103091). The effect silencing on inhibition CENPA expression, proliferation, migration, glycolysis could be recovered by overexpression CENPA. According MeRIP, level m6A modification FOMX1 decreased treated cycloleucine (a inhibitor) control group. increase caused YTHDC1 reversed inhibitor, which indicated enhanced depending modification. Therefore, concluded YTHDC1‐m6A modification/FOXM1/CENPA axis plays an important progression glycolysis.
