摘要
Lay abstracts Gastric cancer (GC) remains one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive system and the third most common cause of death from cancer. Since GC is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, despite advances in comprehensive treatment strategies, its mortality rate is still very high. GC is a disease that is highly heterogeneous in terms of genotype and phenotype. Therefore, a more complete understanding of the molecular mechanism of GC carcinogenesis and identification of reliable molecular targets for the diagnosis and prognosis of GC are highly valued. It is well known that the HOXC gene family expression is upregulated in most solid tumor types, such as lung cancer, colon cancer and prostate cancer. The authors explore the role of the HOXC gene family in GC. Results demonstrated that HOXC family members are potential targets for diagnosis and may work as prognostic biomarkers of GC. Aims: HOX clusters encode proteins that play pivotal roles in regulating transcription factors and many other proteins during embryogenesis. However, little is known about the diagnostic and prognostic values of HOXC family members in gastric cancer (GC). Materials and methods: The authors evaluated the data in patients with GC based on bioinformatics analysis. Results: HOXC6/8/9/10/11/13 were overexpressed in GC and associated with a poor prognosis. HOXC4/5 were downregulated in GC tissues. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that they have high diagnostic value. In addition, HOXC4/5/6/9/10/11/13 were negatively correlated with DNA methylation level. The gene set enrichment analysis results implied that they play essential roles in multiple biological processes underlying tumorigenesis. Conclusion: HOXC family members are potential targets for diagnosis and may work as prognostic biomarkers of GC.
