A novel histone acetylation-associated gene signature with prognostic value in Ewing sarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Histone acetylation is an important epigenetic modification, modulating the development of many tumors. However, the functions of most histone acetylation-related genes (HARGs) and their prognostic values in Ewing sarcoma (EWS) remain unclear. The current study aimed to investigate the prognostic values and potential functions of HARGs in EWS. After collecting EWS patients with mRNA sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and a list of HARGs from previous studies, Cox regression and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression were performed to construct a prognostic gene signature based on HARGs. Then, four HARGs (TAF4, ATF2, HDAC2 and OGA) composed a formula to calculate risk score for each patient in the training cohort. Based on median risk
