MCM5 is a Novel Therapeutic Target for Glioblastoma
Objective: MCM5 is a DNA licensing factor involved in cell proliferation and has been previously established as an excellent biomarker in a number of malignancies. Nevertheless, the role of MCM5 in GBM has not been fully clarified. The present study aimed to investigate the potential roles of MCM5 in the treatment of GBM and to elucidate its underlying mechanism, which is beneficial for developing new therapeutic strategies and predicting prognosis. Methods: Firstly, we obtained transcriptomic and proteomic data from the TCGA and CPTAC databases on glioma patients. Employing the DeSeq2 R package, we then identified genes with joint differential expression in GBM tissues subjected to chemotherapy. To develop a prognostic risk score model, we performed univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. In vitro knockdown and overexpression of MCM5 were used to further investigate the biological functions of GBM cells. Additionally, we also delved into the upstream regulation of MCM5, revealing associations with several transcription factors. Finally, we investigated differences in immune cell infiltration and drug sensitivity across diverse risk groups identified in the prognostic risk model. Results: In this study, the chemotherapy-treated GBM samples exhibited consistent alterations in 46 upregulated and 94 downregulated genes at both the mRNA and protein levels. Notably, MCM5 emerged as a gene with prognostic significance as well as potential therapeutic relevance. In vitro experiments subsequently validated the role of increased MCM5 expression in promoting GBM cell proliferation and resistance to TMZ. Correlations with transcription factors such as CREB1, CTCF, NFYB, NRF1, PBX1, TEAD1, and USF1 were discovered during upstream regulatory analysis, enriching our understanding of MCM5 regulatory mechanisms. The study additionally delves into immune cell infiltration and drug sensitivity, providing valuable insights for personalized treatment approaches. Conclusion: This study identifies MCM5 as a key player in GBM, demonstrating its prognostic significance and potential therapeutic relevance by elucidating its role in promoting cell proliferation and resistance to chemotherapy.

期刊介绍:
OncoTargets and Therapy is an international, peer-reviewed journal focusing on molecular aspects of cancer research, that is, the molecular diagnosis of and targeted molecular or precision therapy for all types of cancer.
The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of high-quality original research, basic science, reviews and evaluations, expert opinion and commentary that shed novel insight on a cancer or cancer subtype.
Specific topics covered by the journal include:
-Novel therapeutic targets and innovative agents
-Novel therapeutic regimens for improved benefit and/or decreased side effects
-Early stage clinical trials
Further considerations when submitting to OncoTargets and Therapy:
-Studies containing in vivo animal model data will be considered favorably.
-Tissue microarray analyses will not be considered except in cases where they are supported by comprehensive biological studies involving multiple cell lines.
-Biomarker association studies will be considered only when validated by comprehensive in vitro data and analysis of human tissue samples.
-Studies utilizing publicly available data (e.g. GWAS/TCGA/GEO etc.) should add to the body of knowledge about a specific disease or relevant phenotype and must be validated using the authors’ own data through replication in an independent sample set and functional follow-up.
-Bioinformatics studies must be validated using the authors’ own data through replication in an independent sample set and functional follow-up.
-Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) studies will not be considered.
