Skin cancer is a typical cancer tumor, which occurs all over the world and has a relatively high recurrence rate, including metastatic tumors that occur in other tissues and metastases to the skin, thus jeopardizing the personal life satisfaction and soundness of patients. Due to individual differences, the traditional treatment methods cannot adapt to every patient accurately, so it is difficult to achieve the desired treatment effect for each individual. Nowadays, with the development of gene chip, many new therapies based on gene are more targeted and flexible for the treatment of skin cancer patients. Therefore, it is necessary to mine and analyze appropriate gene biomarkers according to patients' genes. Because of the high cost of gene chip technology and the large number of human genes, there are few samples of gene data and high dimensions. It is a key problem to mine effective genetic biomarkers from the sample data. In this paper, we firstly performed the preliminary analysis using the difference expression analysis and proportional hazards model, then used the elastic network method to reduce the range of genetic data selection, and screened 26 gene prognostic markers closely related to the recurrence of metastatic skin cancer. Finally, the 26 gene biomarkers were analyzed by functional analysis and verified using a test sample. Research findings have shown that the obtained genetic markers have certain value in the clinical prognostic treatment of metastatic skin cancer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
