【 摘 要 】
BackgroundGastric cancer is one of the most common malignant cancers worldwide. Despite substantial developments in therapeutic strategies, the five-year survival rate remains low. Therefore, novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets involved in the progression of gastric tumors need to be identified.MethodsWe obtained the mRNA microarray datasets GSE65801, GSE54129 and GSE79973 from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to acquire differentially expressed genes (DEGs). We used the Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) to analyze DEG pathways and functions, and the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) and Cytoscape to obtain the protein–protein interaction (PPI) network. Next, we validated the hub gene expression levels using the Oncomine database and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA), and conducted stage expression and survival analysis.ResultsFrom the three microarray datasets, we identified nine major hub genes: COL1A1, COL1A2, COL3A1, COL5A2, COL4A1, FN1, COL5A1, COL4A2, and COL6A3.ConclusionOur study identified COL1A1 and COL1A2 as potential gastric cancer prognostic biomarkers.
