Abstract
Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) represents a significant health concern within the population. Advancing our understanding of COAD is imperative for early detection, enabling personalized treatment interventions, and facilitating the development of effective preventive measures. The coagulation system plays a role in tumor-related pathological processes; however, its specific involvement in COAD and potential contributors remain unclear. This study aimed to establish a novel risk stratification approach by analyzing coagulation related genes (CRGs) associated with COAD. Through a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of data from public databases, we screened COAD associated CRGs and characterized the associated molecular subtypes. After a comprehensive analysis of the characteristics of each subtype, we applied differentially expressed genes in CRG subtypes to establish a new risk stratification method. Clinical subgroup analysis, immunoinfiltration analysis, therapeutic reactivity prediction and other analytical methods suggest the potential clinical value of the established risk stratification method. As one of the selected targets, the effect of MS4A4A on the proliferation and invasion of COAD was confirmed by in vitro experiments, which partially verified the reliability of bioinformatics results. Our findings delineate CRGs potentially implicated in COAD pathogenesis and offer fresh insights into the influence of the coagulation process on tumorigenesis and progression.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Cell International publishes articles on all aspects of cancer cell biology, originating largely from, but not limited to, work using cell culture techniques.
The journal focuses on novel cancer studies reporting data from biological experiments performed on cells grown in vitro, in two- or three-dimensional systems, and/or in vivo (animal experiments). These types of experiments have provided crucial data in many fields, from cell proliferation and transformation, to epithelial-mesenchymal interaction, to apoptosis, and host immune response to tumors.
Cancer Cell International also considers articles that focus on novel technologies or novel pathways in molecular analysis and on epidemiological studies that may affect patient care, as well as articles reporting translational cancer research studies where in vitro discoveries are bridged to the clinic. As such, the journal is interested in laboratory and animal studies reporting on novel biomarkers of tumor progression and response to therapy and on their applicability to human cancers.
