Identification of genes predicting chemoresistance and short survival in ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a kind of lethiferous cancer in gynecology, and the development of chemoresistance is the brief reason for treatment failure. The genes which contribute to chemoresistance are often leading to short survival. Thus, this study aims to identify predictive markers for chemoresistance and survival from chemoresistant-related genes.

Methods

Coremine was used to retrieve of genes linked to OC chemoresistance. The relationship of genes with patient survival was analyzed in 489 OC patients of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort, which the subgroup of 90 resistant and 197 sensitive samples was used to determine gene expression. Kaplan-Meier (KM) plotter of 1,816 OC patients with survival data was retrieved for survival analysis. Survival analysis w
