Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common primary liver cancer with a high incidence and mortality. Members of the growth-arresting-specific 2 (GAS2) family are involved in various biological processes in human malignancies. To date, there is only a limited amount of information available about the expression profile and clinical importance of GAS2 family in HCC. In this study, we found that GAS2L1 and GAS2L3 were distinctly upregulated in HCC specimens compared to non-tumor specimens. Pan-cancer assays indicated that GAS2L1 and GAS2L3 were highly expressed in most cancers. The Pearson's correlation revealed that the expressions of GAS2, GAS2L1 and GAS2L2 were negatively associated with methylation levels. Survival assays indicated that GAS2L1 and GAS2L3 were independent prognostic factors for HCC patients. Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that GAS2, GAS2L1 and GAS2L3 were associated with several immune cells. Finally, we confirmed that GAS2L1 was highly expressed in HCC cells and its knockdown suppressed the proliferation of HCC cells. Taken together, our findings suggested the expression patterns and prognostic values of GAS2 members in HCC, providing insights for further study of the GAS2 family as sensitive diagnostic and prognostic markers for HCC.
肝细胞癌(HCC)是一种常见的原发性肝癌,发病率和死亡率都很高。生长停滞特异性2(GAS2)家族成员参与人类恶性肿瘤的各种生物学过程。迄今为止,关于GAS2家族在HCC中的表达谱和临床重要性的信息有限。在本研究中,我们发现与非肿瘤标本相比,GAS2L1和GAS2L3在HCC标本中明显上调。泛癌分析表明,GAS2L1和GAS2L3在大多数癌症中高表达。Pearson相关性分析显示,GAS2、GAS2L1和GAS2L2的表达与甲基化水平呈负相关。生存分析表明,GAS2L1和GAS2L3是HCC患者的独立预后因素。免疫细胞浸润分析显示,GAS2、GAS2L1和GAS2L3与几种免疫细胞有关。最后,我们证实GAS2L1在HCC细胞中高表达,其敲低可抑制HCC细胞的增殖。综上所述,我们的研究结果揭示了GAS2家族成员在HCC中的表达模式和预后价值,为进一步研究GAS2家族作为HCC敏感的诊断和预后标志物提供了思路。
