“…The network produced by the STRING tool comprised 22 out of the 49 DEGs, with 44 edges between them, while the MCL clustering algorithm revealed 4 distinct protein clusters related to immune responses (HLA-A, HLA-C, HLA-DQA1, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DRB1, HLA-E, MICB, PPP1R11, PSMB9, SPOPL, TRIM26), the cellular response to UVA and interleykin-1 and chitin catabolic process (CCL18, CHI3L1, CHIT1, MMP2, MMP9, OLR1), the hydrogen peroxide catabolic process, and nitric oxide (NO) and carbon dioxide transportation (HBA2, HBB, RPS9), as highlighted in Figure 1 . This evidence is previously supported [11] . It has been stressed that the accumulation of chitin in the body may play a significant role in AD, potentially triggering cognitive decline due to its neurotoxic properties and subsequent induction of neuroinflammation [24] , [25] .…”
