Differential expression analysis identified acetylation-related genes followed by enrichment and protein\u2013protein interaction analyses. Key genes were extracted via feature selection based on LASSO and SVM-RFE methods and further used to establish and validate a multigene logistic regression model. Consensus clustering was used to identify two acetylation subtypes (ACEcluster A\/B), and their immune characteristics were further explored by ssGSEA and immune-cell infiltration profiling.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After treatment, acetylation-related genes were globally upregulated and were enriched in protein acetylation and acetyltransferase complex pathways. Further, four genes (SPRED1, HDAC3, NSRP1, and DUSP1) exhibited stable performance and were further used to build a nomogram and achieve high discriminative performance (AUC = 0.908 in the training set; 0.810 in the validation set). Subtype B displayed higher acetylation activity and immune-cell infiltration. Co-expression analysis on 452 acetylation-related genes extracted 107 highly co-regulated candidates and further clustered into two groups coinciding with ACEcluster classification.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>WNA markedly remodels the peripheral-blood acetylation-related transcriptomic network in KOA and suggests that stronger acetylation activity is associated with immune-cell activation.
