Article Title: Identification of MTURN as a trained immunity-related biomarker for heart failure via integrative transcriptomic machine learning analysis and experimental validation

doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2026.1739660

Figure Lengend Snippet: Five heart failure transcriptomic datasets were integrated with a macrophage-trained immunity model to identify immune-related biomarkers. Through DEGs analysis, WGCNA, CIBERSORT, and six machine learning algorithms, hub genes were prioritized with MTURN emerging as the top candidate. Its potential was further validated by scRNA-seq analysis, which confirmed MTURN enrichment in cardiac macrophages. Finally, MTURN expression was validated using previously published heart failure transcriptomic data and in vitro experiments.
