Abstract:
Background: Diffuse lower-grade gliomas (LGGs) are infiltrative and heterogeneous neoplasms. Gene signature including multiple protein-coding genes (PCGs) is widely used as a tumor marker. This study aimed to construct a multi-PCG signature to predict survival for LGG patients. Methods: LGG data including PCG expression profiles and clinical information were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA). Survival analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, and random survival forest algorithm (RSFVH) were used to identify the prognostic PCG signature. Results: From the training ( n = 524) and test ( n = 431) datasets, a five-PCG signature which can classify LGG patients into low- or high-risk group with a significantly different overall survival (log rank P & lt; 0.001) was screened out and validated. In terms of prognosis predictive performance, the five-PCG signature is stronger than other clinical variables and IDH mutation status. Moreover, the five-PCG signature could further divide radiotherapy patients into two different risk groups. GO and KEGG analysis found that PCGs in the prognostic five-PCG signature were mainly enriched in cell cycle, apoptosis, DNA replication pathways. Conclusions: The new five-PCG signature is a reliable prognostic marker for LGG patients and has a good prospect in clinical application.
