Although intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) can effectively treat Kawasaki disease (KD), 10-20% of KD patients show no beneficial clinical response. Developing reliable criteria to discriminate non-responders is important for early planning of appropriate regimens. To predict the non-responders before IVIG treatment, gene expression dataset of 110 responders and 61 non-responders was obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus. After weighted gene co-expression network analysis, we found that modules positively correlated with the non-responders were mainly associated with myeloid cell activation. Transcripts up-regulated in the non-responders, IL1R2, GK, HK3, C5orf32, CXCL16, NAMPT and EMILIN2, were proven to play key roles via interaction with other transcripts in co-expression network. The crucial transcripts may affect the clinical response to IVIG treatment in acute KD. And these transcripts may serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for precise diagnosis and treatment of the non-responders.
