| Abstract | Objective To investigate the differential expression genes (DEGs) in spinal tuberculosis using transcriptomics, with the aim of identifying novel therapeutic targets and prognostic indicators for the clinical management of spinal tuberculosis. Methods Patients who visited the Department of Orthopedics at the Second Hospital, Lanzhou University from January 2021 to May 2023 were enrolled. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, there were 5 patients in the test group and 5 patients in the control group. Total RNA was extracted and paired-end sequencing was conducted on the sequencing platform. After processing the sequencing data with clean reads and annotating the reference genome, FPKM normalization and differential expression analysis were performed. The DEGs and long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) were analyzed for Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment. The cis-regulation of differentially expressed mRNAs (DE mRNAs) by LncRNAs was predicted and analyzed to establish a co-expression network. Results This study identified 2366 DEGs, with 974 genes significantly upregulated and 1392 genes significantly downregulated. The upregulated genes are associated with cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions, tuberculosis, and TNF-α signaling pathways, primarily enriched in biological processes such as immunity and inflammation. The downregulated genes are related to muscle development, contraction, fungal defense response, and collagen metabolism processes. Analysis of LncRNAs from bone tuberculosis RNA-seq data detected a total of 3652 LncRNAs, with 356 significantly upregulated and 184 significantly downregulated. Further analysis identified 311 significantly different LncRNAs that could cis-regulate 777 target genes, enriched in pathways such as muscle contraction, inflammatory response, and immune response, closely related to bone tuberculosis. There are 51 genes enriched in the immune response pathway regulated by cis-acting LncRNAs. LncRNAs that regulate immune response-related genes, such as upregulated RP11-451G4.2, RP11-701P16.5, AC079767.4, AC017002.1, LINC01094, CTA-384D8.35, and AC092484.1, as well as downregulated RP11-2C24.7, may serve as potential prognostic and therapeutic targets. Conclusion The DE mRNAs and LncRNAs in spinal tuberculosis are both associated with immune regulatory pathways. These pathways promote or inhibit the tuberculosis infection and development at the mechanistic level and play an important role in the process of tuberculosis transferring to bone tissue. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
