Identification of an energy metabolism‑related gene signature in ovarian cancer prognosis.

ABSTRACT: Changes in energy metabolism may be potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for cancer as they frequently occur within cancer cells. However, basic cancer research has failed to reach a consistent conclusion on the function(s) of mitochondria in energy metabolism. The significance of energy metabolism in the prognosis of ovarian cancer remains unclear; thus, there remains an urgent need to systematically analyze the characteristics and clinical value of energy metabolism in ovarian cancer. Based on gene expression patterns, the present study aimed to analyze energy metabolism‑associated characteristics to evaluate the prognosis of patients with ovarian cancer. A total of 39 energy metabolism‑related genes significantly associated with prognosis were obtained, and three molecular subty
