Ferroptosis-Related Gene MT1G as a Novel Biomarker Correlated With Prognosis and Immune Infiltration in Colorectal Cancer
Ferroptosis, a newly discovered way of cell death, has been proved to be involved in the oncogenesis and development of cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, by identifying the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from three CRC transcriptome microarray datasets (GSE20842, GSE23878, and...

Sumario: | Ferroptosis, a newly discovered way of cell death, has been proved to be involved in the oncogenesis and development of cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, by identifying the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from three CRC transcriptome microarray datasets (GSE20842, GSE23878, and GSE25070), we found that the expression of MT1G was significantly decreased in CRC tissues, and the patients with a high level of MT1G displayed a poor prognosis. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) further confirmed the downregulated MT1G in two CRC cells, HCT8 and HCT116. The colony-forming assay indicated that the MT1G overexpression exhibited a remarkable inhibition of cell proliferation in HCT8 and HCT116 cells. In addition, we explored the co-expressed genes of MT1G to gain a better understanding of its potential signaling pathways. Aberrantly expressed MT1G also affected the immune response of CRC patients. Collectively, these findings might deepen our comprehension on the potential biological implications of MT1G in CRC. |
