Abstract

The involvement of aberrantly expressed genes in the pathogenesis and progression of various human malignancies has been widely reported, including clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). This study aimed to identify potential crucial genes in ccRCC and further investigate the role of these genes in ccRCC prognosis. Three gene expression profiles (GSE3, GSE6344 and GSE53000) were downloaded from GEO database. GEO2R was performed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between ccRCC and normal samples. GO analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were applied for the function analysis. The DEGs were mapped into the PPI network, then the hub genes were identified and verified using the ONCOMINE database. Kaplan–Meier plotter was used to evaluate of the prognostic value of the identified hub genes. A total of 113 DEGs were identified from the three gene expression profiles, including 64 up-regulated genes and 69 down-regulated genes. DEGs were observed to be enriched in biological processes related to the progress and pathogenesis of human cancers. According to PPI network, 5 hub genes were collected, including TYROBP, C1QB, ITGB2, CD53 and FCER1G. Among them, CD53 was newly identified, and Kaplan–Meier survival curves suggested that high expression of CD53 was significantly associated with poor survival in ccRCC patients (log-rank P < 0.01). The present results may provide new insight into the understanding of molecular mechanisms and the clinical prognosis of ccRCC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
