Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The failure rate of treatment for its subsets is still very high. CXC chemokine, secreted by a variety of cells, is a vital component in the immune process. It also participated in the growth, development, and metastasis of tumors. This study aimed to explore the prognosis of CXC chemokines in DLBCL and the relationship with immune infiltration through bioinformatics analysis. Methods: We systematically analyzed the expression level and prognostic value of CXC chemokines in DLBCL patients, and the correlation between CXC chemokines and tumor immune infiltration through databases, such as Oncomine, GEO, GEPIA, GeneMANIA, DAVID, HPA, GenomicScape, and TIMER2.0. Results: With the comprehensive analysis of different databases, we found that CXC chemokines (CXCL1
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a common hematopoietic tumor with extremely high morbidity and mortality. This study was designed to explore candidate genes that were related to the poor prognosis of AML patients and analyze their relationship with drug sensitivity. Methods: Microarray databases were performed to screen the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). DAVID 6.8 was used for further functional enrichment analysis. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed through STRING website and Cytoscape tool. Then, we analyzed and explored the mRNA transcription level, prognosis correlation, and drug sensitivity of the candidate genes in AML via multiple acknowledged databases including the GEPIA, BloodSpot, EMBL-EBI, UALCAN, LinkedOmics, and GSCALite databases. Results: A total of 181 up-regulated DEGs were screened. Three candidate genes (MAP2K3, LST1, and CYTH4) related to poor outcomes of AML patients were identified. Meanwhile, the high expression levels of the three genes were verified in AML patients and AML cell lines, the expression differences of three genes at AML different subtypes were demonstrated. Drug sensitivity analysis displayed the expression levels of MAP2K3, LST1, and CYTH4 were negatively related to drug resistance, indicating that the three genes were sensitive to certain small-molecule drugs (including targeted drugs and non-targeted drugs). Conclusion: In summary, MAP2K3, LST1, and CYTH4 may be potential prognostic indicators for AML, and may be associated with the sensitivity of certain small molecule drugs.
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.
