Mito-fission gene prognostic model for colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dysregulated cellular metabolism is one of the major causes of colorectal cancer (CRC), including mitochondrial fission. Therefore, this study focuses on the specific regulatory mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction on CRC, which will provide theoretical guidance for CRC in the future.

Methods

The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-CRC dataset, GSE103479 dataset and 40 mitochondrial fission-related genes (MFRGs) were downloaded in this study. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed in TCGA-CRC samples. Using MFRGs scores as traits, key module genes associated with its scores were screened by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Then, differentially expressed MFRGs (DE-MFRGs) were obtained by intersecting DEGs and key module genes. Next,
