To develop novel diagnostic tools that can predict the prognosis of gastric cancer. Using RNA expression data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus, we established protein-coding RNAs-noncoding RNAs-tumor microenvironment type (PNM) scores, which contain signatures of tumor protein coding genes (P), tumor noncoding genes (N) and immune/stroma cells in tumor microenvironment (M) to predict the prognosis of gastric cancer. Based on PNM scores, gastric cancer patients were divided into three subgroups and Kaplan-Meier survival curves revealed significant differences among the subgroups (p < 0.001). Our study showed that the PNM scores could be used as a robust predicting tool for the prognosis of gastric cancer.
为了开发能够预测胃癌预后的新型诊断工具。利用来自癌症基因组图谱和基因表达综合数据库的 RNA 表达数据,我们建立了包含肿瘤蛋白编码基因(P)、肿瘤非编码基因(N)和肿瘤微环境中免疫/基质细胞特征的蛋白编码 RNA-非编码 RNA-肿瘤微环境类型(PNM)评分,以预测胃癌的预后。基于 PNM 评分,将胃癌患者分为三组,Kaplan-Meier 生存曲线显示组间差异具有统计学意义(p<0.001)。本研究表明,PNM 评分可作为预测胃癌预后的有效工具。
