A prognostic signature based on snoRNA predicts the overall survival of lower-grade glioma patients.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a group of non-coding RNAs enriched in the nucleus which direct post-transcriptional modifications of rRNAs, snRNAs and other molecules. Recent studies have suggested that snoRNAs have a significant role in tumor oncogenesis and can be served as prognostic markers for predicting the overall survival of tumor patients.

Methods

We screened 122 survival-related snoRNAs from public databases and eventually selected 7 snoRNAs that were most relevant to the prognosis of lower-grade glioma (LGG) patients for the establishment of the 7-snoRNA prognostic signature. Further, we combined clinical characteristics related to the prognosis of glioma patients and the 7-snoRNA prognostic signature to construct a nomogram.
