Abstract
Abstract Objective This study aimed to identify and analyze potential signatures of pyroptosis-related genes in EMs. Methods Transcriptomic datasets related to endometriosis were retrieved from the GEO databases (GSE7305, GSE7307, and GSE11691). Differential gene expression analysis was performed to identify pyroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (PRDEGs) by intersecting DEGs with a curated list of PRGs. Various bioinformatics tools were employed to explore the biological functions and pathways associated with PRDEGs. Results We identified 26 PRDEGs from combined datasets and constructed an EMs diagnostic model using LASSO regression based on pyroptosis scores. The model included 5 DEGs: KIF13B, BAG6, MYO5A, HEATR, and AK055981. Additionally, 21 Key Module Genes (KMGs) were identified, leading to the classification of 3 distinct EMs subtypes. These subtypes were analyzed for immune cell infiltration, revealing a complex immune landscape in EMs. Conclusions This study reveals pyroptosis’ crucial role in EMs and offers a novel diagnostic model based on pyroptosis-related genes. Modulating pyroptosis may provide a new therapeutic approach for managing EMs.
