Distinct prognostic value of mRNA expression of guanylate-binding protein genes in skin cutaneous melanoma.
Oncology Letters 2018 May
The purpose of the present study was to assess if guanylate-binding protein (GBP) mRNAs could be prognostic biomarkers for patients with skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM). The prognostic value of GBP mRNA expression in patients with SKCM was investigated by analyzing gene expression data in 459 SKCM patients. The data were extracted from the OncoLnc database of The Cancer Genome Atlas. A high expression of GBP1, GBP2, GBP3, GBP4 and GBP5 were correlated with favorable overall survival (OS) in the SKCM patients followed for over 30 years. In addition, a high expression of GBP6 mRNA was not correlated with OS in the SKCM patients. A joint effects analysis showed that the co-incidence of the high expression of GBP1-5 was correlated with favorable overall survival in SKCM patients. Our findings suggest that GBP1-5 mRNAs in SKCM are associated with favorable prognosis and may be potential prognostic biomarkers. The combination of GBP1-5 could improve the sensitivity for predicting OS in SKCM patients.
