AI Article Synopsis
- * They identified 373 metabolism-related genes from the TCGA database, constructing a risk score indicating that patients with low risk have better outcomes than those with high risk.
- * The research confirmed that this risk score is an independent prognostic factor, effectively predicting patient survival and highlighting key metabolism-related pathways involved in bladder cancer.
Article Abstract
Reprogramming of metabolism is becoming a novel hallmark of cancer. This study aims to perform bioinformatics analysis of metabolism-related genes in bladder cancer, and to construct a signature of metabolism-related genes for predicting the prognosis. A total of 373 differentially expressed metabolism-related genes were identified from TCGA database. Taking survival time and clinical information into consideration, we constructed a risk score to predict clinical prognosis. Low-risk patients had a better prognosis than high-risk patients. Multivariate analysis showed that risk score was an independent prognostic indicator in bladder cancer. ROC curve also proved that risk score had better ability to predict prognosis than other individual indicators. Nomogram also showed a clinical net benefit to evaluate the prognosis of bladder cancer patients. GSEA revealed several metabolism-related pathways that were differentially enriched in the high-risk and low-risk groups, which might help to explain the underlying mechanisms. This signature was confirmed to be an effective prognostic biomarker in bladder cancer.
