| Abstract | Background Neonatal sepsis (NS), a life-threatening condition, is characterized by organ dysfunction and is the most common cause of neonatal death. However, the pathogenesis of NS is unclear and the clinical inflammatory markers currently used are not ideal for diagnosis of NS. Thus, exploring the link between immune responses in NS pathogenesis, elucidating the molecular mechanisms involved, and identifying potential therapeutic targets is of great significance in clinical practice. Herein, our study aimed to explore immune-related genes in NS and identify potential diagnostic biomarkers. Datasets for patients with NS and healthy controls were downloaded from the GEO database; GSE69686 and GSE25504 were used as the analysis and validation datasets, respectively. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was performed to determine their biological functions. Composition of immune cells was determined and immune-related genes (IRGs) between the two clusters were identified and their metabolic pathways were determined. Key genes with correlation coefficient > 0.5 and p < 0.05 were selected as screening biomarkers. Logistic regression models were constructed based on the selected biomarkers, and the diagnostic models were validated. Results Fifty-two DEGs were identified, and GSEA indicated involvement in acute inflammatory response, bacterial detection, and regulation of macrophage activation. Most infiltrating immune cells, including activated CD8 + T cells, were significantly different in patients with NS compared to the healthy controls. Fifty-four IRGs were identified, and GSEA indicated involvement in immune response and macrophage activation and regulation of T cell activation. Diagnostic models of DEGs containing five genes (PROS1, TDRD9, RETN, LOC728401, and METTL7B) and IRG with one gene (NSUN7) constructed using LASSO algorithm were validated using the GPL6947 and GPL13667 subset datasets, respectively. The IRG model outperformed the DEG model. Additionally, statistical analysis suggested that risk scores may be related to gestational age and birth weight, regardless of sex. Conclusions We identified six IRGs as potential diagnostic biomarkers for NS and developed diagnostic models for NS. Our findings provide a new perspective for future research on NS pathogenesis. |

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.
