Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the marker of ferroptosis-related genes in differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) based on TCGA database.Methods:The mRNA expression profiles and survival information of thyroid cancer patients and normal thyroid samples were downloaded from the TCGA database. The genetic difference analysis added 653 normal thyroid samples from the GETx database. Twenty-two ferroptosis-related genes were selected for univariate Cox regression analysis. Genes associated with prognostic in the TCGA cohort were further screened and prognostic models using LASSO regression was constructed. Adjusted P<0.05 and | log2FC>1" as the threshold, 22 differentially expressed genes were selected. The genes were screened by multivariate Cox regression analysis for prognosis-related genes and displayed in a line diagram. Results:22 of the 24 ferroptosis-related genes were differentially expressed between the tumor and normal tissues, with13 high expression, 9 low expression, 1 gene expression without difference and 1 gene not expressed in half of the samples. Univariate Cox regression analysis found that DPP4 and TFRC were associated with the degree of disease risk (HR was<1 and>1, respectively) . When integrating GPX4, TFRC and DPP4 into the LASSO model screening, it was found to be related to prognosis after dividing the patients into risk groups according to lambda. min=0.0027, Riskscore= (0.7316) * TFRC+ (-0.2539) *DPP4 (Log rank P=0.00635. Multivariate Cox regression analysis found that DPP4 and TFRC were related to the degree of disease risk (HR were<1 and>1, respectively) . Conclusion:The model of TFRC and DPP4 constructed by ferroptosis-related differential expression genes may be potential predictive markers of DTC patients, which still needs further verification and will provide theoretical basis for further clinical treatment.
