Background: Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is a prevalent gynecological tumor with a bleak prognosis. Anomalous glycosylation plays a pivotal role in tumorigenesis. Currently, there is a lack of prognostic signatures based on glycosylation-related genes for UCEC. Thus, our research aims to construct a predictive model and validate the correlation between relevant genes and biological functions.
Methods: Using the TCGA database, we developed prognostic models and explored their relationships with survival outcomes. We further selected key genes to verify their expression in tissues and assess their impact on cellular behavior.
Results: The clinical prognosis of the high-risk group was significantly worse than that of the low-risk group. The nomogram model accurately predicted UCEC patient prognosis. Additionally, we identified OLFML1 as a unique signature gene that can inhibit UCEC progression and reduce radiation resistance in vitro.
Conclusions: Our model, which is based on glycosylation-related genes in UCEC, effectively identifies high-risk patients and provides valuable prognostic information. In addition, OLFML1 acts as a tumor suppressor in UCEC and enhances radiosensitivity, suggesting a new potential target for improving therapeutic efficacy.

Glycosylation, characterized by its complexity and diversity, is a common system across all domains of life. The glycosylation of proteins or lipids imparts them with structural and functional roles, ranging from development to infectious or Mendelian disease. The high-throughput-based omics data has revealed that glycans are involved in important cellular processes.

Introduction: Low-grade gliomas (LGG) represent a heterogeneous and complex group of brain tumors. Despite significant progress in understanding and managing these tumors, there are still many challenges that need to be addressed. Glycosylation, a common post-translational modification of proteins, plays a significant role in tumor transformation.
