Mining TCGA database for genes of prognostic value in gastric cancer microenvironment.


ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is the sixth most common malignancy and the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Emerging evidence suggests that tumour microenvironment cells play a vital role in the development and prognosis of GC. To investigate the possible effect of stromal scores and immune scores on the overall survival (OS) on the GC patients, we divided GC patients into 'high' and 'low' groups based on their stromal and immune scores, and found differentially expressed genes related to prognosis of GC patients. Functional enrichment analysis and GSVA further revealed that focal adhesion and ECM-receptor interaction are associated with GC patients' survival. Finally, we analysed the effects of genes commonly involved in focal adhesion and ECM-receptor interaction on GC patients' survival and validated our results in another GC cohort from GEO data sets. In conclusion, we obtained a list of tumour microenvironment-related genes that predict poor prognosis in GC patients.
