Abstract
- BackgroundIt is well known that the prognosis of Gastric cancer (GC) patient is affected by many factors. However, the latent impact of anoikis on the prognosis of GC patients is insufficient understood.MethodsAccording to the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we elected discrepantly expressed anoikis-related genes (ARGs). Univariate cox and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (lasso) analysis were applied to build the ARGs signature. The prognostic effect of the ARGs signature was also evaluated. A series of algorithms were performed to evaluate the discrepancies in the immune microenvironment. Moreover, the correlation between drug sensitivity and ARGs signature was analyzed. We also performed Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) to probe the signature.ResultsThe ARGs signature of 9 genes was constructed, which was apparently interrelated with the prognosis. The nomogram was established by combining the ARGs signature with clinicopathological characteristics. We found that the predictive power was noteworthily superior to other individual predictors. The immune microenvironment analysis indicated that ESTIMATEscore, ImmuneScores, StromalScores, tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion (TIDE) score were lower in the low-risk group, while immunophenoscore (IPS) was on the contrary. The infiltrated immune cells and immune checkpoint (ICP) expression levels were significantly different between the two groups. Furthermore, nine drugs were positively associated with the ARGs signature score. The results of RT-PCR analysis were consistent with our previous differential expression analysis.ConclusionThe developed ARGs signature could act as the biomarker and provide a momentous reference for Individual therapy of GC patients.
