Integrated analysis of DNA methylation-regulated genes in osteoarthritis rats treated with Phlomis umbrosa extract
This study investigated the effects of Phlomis umbrosa on genes regulated by DNA methylation in a rat model of osteoarthritis (OA). An integrative analysis of DNA methylation and gene expression profiling of Phlomis umbrosa extract (PUE) identified 26 genes from 43 differentially methylated regions (DMRs). Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis revealed that Vav2, Cyfip2, Rac1, Rhoh, Col5a1, and Col14a1 formed a network. Among these genes, some were found to be associated with collagen chain trimerization, a process essential for the formation of the functional structure of collagen, a key component of articular cartilage. Our results identify candidate genes regulated by DNA methylation in OA through a multi-omics analysis of PUE and provide insights into their functions. Future studies are required to elucidate the roles of these genes in OA pathophysiology and to experimentally validate their effects.
