Abstract:

Objective To identify the key gastric cancer-related genes and signaling pathway,and to analyze the parameters in the development of gastric cancer. Methods The gastric cancer-related data from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were downloaded. The genes of gastric cancer tissue and control tissue were screened by GEO2R analysis platform. The Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway were performed. The influence of key genes on the survival of patients with gastric cancer was analyzed by Kaplan Meirer Plotter(KM-Plotter). Results Based on 3 large-scale human gastric cancer datasets,1 480 differenced genes,including 879 up-regulated genes and 601 down-regulated genes, were identified. Through the analysis of GO and KEGG pathway,the differenced genes mainly enriched on cytochrome P450 family,glcuronyl transferase family and other gene clusters. Furthermore,ALDH3A1 and NEUROD1 were deemed the most important genes being related to the progression of gastric cancer. According to the expression of the important genes,there was statistical significance for survival time between high and low expression(P<0.05). Conclusions This study demonstrates the value of using genetic data from large-scale datasets for key gastric cancer-related genes,which provides a reference for future research.
