Expression And Clinical Significance of BIRC5 In Low-Grade Gliomas Based On Bioinformatics Analysis
Abstract Background: To screen target genes analyze the expression and mechanism of target genes in Low-grade Gliomas (LGG).Methods: LGG data were downloaded from TCGA database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened by differential expression screening, protein–protein interaction (PPI) and enrichment analysis, and then the differentially immune related genes were obtained by analyzing DEGs and immune genes. The abundance of 22 leukocyte subtypes was calculated by CIBERSORT algorithm. The Hub gene constructed by PPI and the gene of prognosis model were analyzed to screen the LGG target gene. The correlation between target gene and LGG prognosis and clinical characteristics of LGG were analyzed. Results: After immunotherapy, the survival of high TMB group was significantly longer than that low TMB group, and the scores of TMB group were correlated with the age and grade of patients. PPI indicates that AURKA, BUB1, AURKB, CDC20, BIRC5, TTK, CCNB2, CDCA8, and CENPE are the hub genes of LGG. The expression level of BIRC5 in LGG tumor tissues was significantly higher than that in normal tissues. The expression level of BIRC5 was correlated with the age and grade of LGG patients. BIRC5 might participate in the occurrence and development of LGG through P53 pathway.Conclusion: BIRC5 can be used as LGG target gene, and its high expression in LGG indicates poor prognosis. BIRC5, as a therapeutic target of LGG, provides a new direction for immunotherapy of LGG.
