Expression, Prognostic Value, and Biological Function of CTHRC1 in Different Types of Gliomas: A Bioinformatic Analysis and Experiment Validation.
Background: In recent years, abnormal expression of collagen triple helix repeat containing 1 (CTHRC1) has been found in some tumors, closely related to the poor prognosis of cancer patients. However, the clinical significance of CTHRC1 in gliomas is not completely understood.
Methods: We investigated the expression, prognostic value, and potential biological function of CTHRC1 in different types of gliomas through bioinformatics analysis and experimental verification.
Results: Bioinformatics analysis revealed several key findings regarding the expression and clinical significance of CTHRC1 in gliomas. First, the analysis demonstrated a positive correlation between CTHRC1 expression and the World Health Organization (WHO) grading of gliomas, a relationship that was validated through immunohistochemistry experiments. In addition, a trend was observed in which CTHRC1 expression increased with the extent of glioma invasion, as supported by Western blot experiments. Subsequent bioinformatics analysis identified the mesenchymal subtype of gliomas as having the highest levels of CTHRC1 expression, a finding reinforced by immunohistochemical staining. Moreover, high CTHRC1 expression was associated with poor prognosis in gliomas and emerged as an independent prognostic factor, with varying impacts on prognosis between low-grade gliomas (LGGs) and glioblastoma (GBM) subgroups. Notably, comparative analysis unveiled distinct patterns of immune infiltration of CTHRC1 in LGG and GBM. Furthermore, alterations in copy number variations and DNA methylation were identified as potential mechanisms underlying elevated CTHRC1 levels in gliomas. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis indicated that CTHRC1 and its associated genes mainly function in the extracellular matrix and participate in tumor-related signaling pathways.
Conclusions: The CTHRC1 has shown significant clinical utility as a prognostic marker and mesenchymal subtype marker of glioma.
