CHEK2 is a potential prognostic biomarker associated with immune infiltration in clear cell renal cell carcinoma
CHEK2 expression increased in cancer tissues First, the expression levels of CHEK2 in different tumor types in the TIMER database were evaluated. All tumors except for chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (KICH) showed elevated levels of CHEK2 expression compared to normal cells (Fig. 1A). Similarly, CHEK2 protein expression was upregulated in all…

Bioinformatics analysis of immune cell infiltration patterns and potential diagnostic markers in atherosclerosis
A database in the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA; www.gsea-msigdb.org/gsea/msigdb/index.jsp) platform10,11 was used to identify 134 GLN metabolism-associated genes. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and module screening GLN-associated gene sets were investigated using WGCNA. The results demonstrated that when the weighted value was 24 (Fig. 1A), scale independence was greater…
Identification and Analysis of NET- related genes in OA
Introduction OA is a degenerative joint disease that primarily affects the elderly population. It is a multifactorial disorder with a complex pathogenesis, involving a variety of joint tissues. In addition to the well-established degradation of articular cartilage, OA encompasses a comprehensive joint pathology, encompassing the synovial membrane, subchondral bone, menisci,…
An integrative bioinformatics investigation and experimental validation of chromobox family in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is one of the most aggressive malignant tumors. Chromobox (CBX) family plays the role of oncogenes in various malignancies. Methods: The transcriptional and protein levels of CBX family were confirmed by GEPIA, Oncomine, CCLE, and HPA database. Screening of co-expressed genes and gene function…
An integrative bioinformatics investigation and experimental validation of chromobox family in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma | BMC Cancer
The mRNA expression levels of CBX family in DLBCL patients To explore the expression differences of the CBX family in DLBCL patients, the GEPIA database was used (Fig. 2). Based on the data obtained from GEPIA, the expression levels of CBX1, CBX2, CBX3, CBX5, CBX6, and CBX8 in DLBCL were higher…
Bioinformatic analyses reveal the prognostic significance and potential role of ankyrin 3 (ANK3) in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma.
Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is one of the most aggressive cancer type of the urinary system. Metastatic KIRC patients have poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Ankyrin 3 (ANK3) is a scaffold protein that plays important roles in maintaining physiological function of the kidney and its alteration is…

CD44 is a potential immunotherapeutic target and affects macrophage infiltration leading to poor prognosis
The role of CD44 in tumorigenesis and as a prognostic marker in BLCA In this study, we determined CD44 mRNA expression in normal and in tumor tissues for BLCA via the use of the TIMER database (Fig. 1A). Our analysis found that there was a significant difference in the expression of…
