Abstract
Background: The prognostic role of annexin A5 (ANXA5) in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) has not been studied, and its relationship with immune infiltration is still unclear.
Objective: This investigation aimed at exploring the role of ANXA5 in STAD using an integrated bioinformatics analysis.
Methods: The expression of ANXA5 in STAD and the correlations between the effect of ANXA5 and survival of STAD patients were investigated using database. The clusterProfiler package in R software was used to perform enrichment analysis on the top 100 co-expressed genes of ANXA5 from the COXPRESdb online database. Correlations between ANXA5 and immune cell infiltrates were analyzed using the TIMER database.
Results: In STAD, ANXA5 expression was significantly upregulated and increased ANXA5 expression was significantly correlated with poor overall survival (P< 0.05). In multivariate analysis, upregulated ANXA5 expression was an independent predictive factors of poor prognosis (P< 0.05). The co-expressed genes were involved in extracellular matrix (ECM)-related processes. In STAD, ANXA5 expression was significantly correlated with various infiltrating immune cells (P< 0.05).
Conclusions: Together with our findings, ANXA5 could serve as a potential biomarker to assess prognosis and immune infiltration level in STAD.
