Identification and validation of prognostic genes associated with mitochondrial nuclear genes in gastric cancer.
Mitochondrial-related nuclear genes (MNGs) have shown great importance in cancer diagnosis and prognosis, but their role in gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. GC-related transcriptome data from the gene expression omnibus and cancer genome atlas databases were analyzed to identify differentially expressed MNGs. A prognostic risk model was constructed through univariate Cox and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, validated by Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival curve and receiver operating characteristic curve. This was followed by immune infiltration analysis, independent prognostic analysis, functional enrichment analysis, drug sensitivity analysis, drug prediction, molecular docking and construction of regulatory networks. Three prognostic genes (ATP8A2, COX15 and TARS2) were identified. The expression of TARS2 and COX15 was positively correlated with CNV, while ATP8A2 was unaffected. The risk model and nomogram, integrating risk score and clinicopathological factors, exhibited excellent predictive performance. A significant correlation was observed between prognostic genes and differential immune cells, such as T cells, B cells, and NK cells. BMS-754807, Gefitinib, JQ1, Lapatinib, and Sapitinib exhibited significant differences in sensitivity between the high-risk group and the low-risk group. The results of molecular docking showed TP8A2 has stable binding ability with cytosine, COX15 with indomethacin, and TARS2 with bisacodyl. RT-qPCR revealed downregulation of ATP8A2 and upregulation of COX15 and TARS2 in GC samples. MNGs, including ATP8A2, COX15, and TARS2, demonstrated significant associations with immune infiltration, CNV, and prognostic outcomes of GC.
期刊介绍:
Clinical and Experimental Medicine (CEM) is a multidisciplinary journal that aims to be a forum of scientific excellence and information exchange in relation to the basic and clinical features of the following fields: hematology, onco-hematology, oncology, virology, immunology, and rheumatology. The journal publishes reviews and editorials, experimental and preclinical studies, translational research, prospectively designed clinical trials, and epidemiological studies. Papers containing new clinical or experimental data that are likely to contribute to changes in clinical practice or the way in which a disease is thought about will be given priority due to their immediate importance. Case reports will be accepted on an exceptional basis only, and their submission is discouraged. The major criteria for publication are clarity, scientific soundness, and advances in knowledge. In compliance with the overwhelmingly prevailing request by the international scientific community, and with respect for eco-compatibility issues, CEM is now published exclusively online.
