| Sumario: | Transcription factors (TFs) are important for regulating gene transcription and are the hallmark of many cancers. The identification of breast cancer TFs will help in developing new diagnostic and individualized cancer treatment tools. In this study, we used quantitative proteomic analyses of nuclear proteins and massive transcriptome data to identify enriched potential TFs and explore the possible role of the transcription factor DMAP1 in breast cancer. We identified 13 prognostic-related TFs and constructed their regulated genes, alternative splicing (AS) events, and splicing factor (SF) regulation networks. DMAP1 was reported less in breast cancer. The expression of DMAP1 decreased in breast cancer tumors compared with normal tissues. The poor prognosis of patients with low DMAP1 expression may relate to the activated PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, as well as other cancer-relevant pathways. This may be due to the low methylation and high expression of these pathway genes and the fact that such patients show more sensitivity to some PI3K/Akt signaling pathway inhibitors. The high expression of DMAP1 was correlated with low immune cell infiltration, and the response to immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment in patients with high DMAP1 expression was low. Our study identifies some transcription factors that are significant for breast cancer progression, which can be used as potential personalized prognostic markers in the future. |
