The diagnostic/prognostic roles and biological function of the IFIT family members in acute myeloid leukemia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeat (IFIT) family, IFIT1/2/3/5, play an important role in different tumors progression. However, the prognosis significance and biological role of IFIT family members in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains unclear.

Methods

We obtained the gene expression data and clinical information of 173 AML patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Several databases were used in our study, including GEPIA, MethSurv, STRING, GSCA and GeneMANIA database.

Results

The mRNA expression of IFIT1/2/3/5 was elevated in AML patients and had a high ability to distinguish AML from controls based on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC > 0.9). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that higher le
