A Hypoxia-Associated Prognostic Gene Signature Risk Model and Prognosis Predictors in Gliomas

Most solid tumours are hypoxic. Tumour cell proliferation and metabolism accelerate oxygen consumption. The low oxygen supply due to vascular abnormalisation and the high oxygen demand of tumour cells give rise to an imbalance, resulting in tumour hypoxia. Hypoxia alters cellular behaviour and is as...

A Hypoxia-Associated Prognostic Gene Signature Risk Model and Prognosis Predictors in Gliomas
description Most solid tumours are hypoxic. Tumour cell proliferation and metabolism accelerate oxygen consumption. The low oxygen supply due to vascular abnormalisation and the high oxygen demand of tumour cells give rise to an imbalance, resulting in tumour hypoxia. Hypoxia alters cellular behaviour and is associated with extracellular matrix remodelling, enhanced tumour migration, and metastatic behaviour. In light of the foregoing, more research on the progressive and prognostic impacts of hypoxia on gliomas are crucial. In this study, we analysed the expression levels of 75 hypoxia-related genes in gliomas and found that a total of 26 genes were differentially expressed in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database samples. We also constructed protein–protein interaction networks using the STRING database and Cytoscape. We obtained a total of 10 Hub genes using the MCC algorithm screening in the cytoHubba plugin. A prognostic risk model with seven gene signatures (PSMB6, PSMD9, UBB, PSMD12, PSMB10, PSMA5, and PSMD14) was constructed based on the 10 Hub genes using LASSO–Cox regression analysis.
