Comprehensive characterization of cancer‐testis genes in testicular germ cell tumor

Abstract: Cancer‐testis (CT) genes are a group of genes restrictedly expressed in testis and multiple cancers and can serve as candidate driver genes participating in the development of cancers. Our previous study identified a number of CT genes in nongerm cell tumors, but their expression pattern in testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT), a cancer type characterized by less genomic alterations, remained largely unknown. In this study, we systematically investigated the expression pattern of CT genes in TGCT samples and eval… Show more

“…To compare the gene expression levels using the data from the TCGA and GTEx databases, we used the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) Xena Browser 2 as described previously (33). Briefly, the expected count values of RNA sequencing by Expectation-Maximization (RSEM) for genes of interest were normalized using DESeq2 (version 2018-05-08) to remove the batch effect, and these calculated values were downloaded from the Xena Browser.…”

“…We obtained the list of autophagy-related genes from HADb [ 26 ]. Fragments per kilobase million (FPKM) RNA-seq data of 575 endometrial cancer samples, which included 23 normal samples and 552 tumor samples, were downloaded from the TCGA database ( https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/ ) [ 25 ]. The Ensembl human genome browser, GRCh38.p13 ( http://asia.ensembl.org/index.html ), was used to annotate and classify the lncRNAs and protein-coding genes.…”

“…Clinical data for endometrial cancer samples were downloaded from UCSC Xena ( https://xenabrowser.net/ ) [ 25 , 27 , 28 ] and organized and merged with the expression matrix of autophagy-related lncRNAs. Using the survival package in R software, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to obtain a list of autophagy-related lncRNAs associated with prognosis.…”

“…The DNA methylation (n = 189) and clinical data (n = 179) for PDAC used in this study was downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database (https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/). To compare the mRNA expression levels using the data from the TCGA (n = 182) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) (n = 167) databases, we used the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) Xena Browser as described previously [11]. In addition, we downloaded methylation data (n = 228) from International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) database (https://icgc.org/).…”
