A five-mRNA signature associated with post-translational modifications can better predict recurrence and survival in cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT: High mortality of patients with cervical cancer (CC) stresses the imperative of prognostic biomarkers for CC patients. Additionally, the vital status of post-translational modifications (PTMs) in the progression of cancers has been reported by numerous researches. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to dig a prognostic signature correlated with PTMs for CC. We built a five-mRNA (GALNTL6, ARSE, DPAGT1, GANAB and FURIN) prognostic signature associated with PTMs to predict both disease-free survival (DFS) (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.967, 95% CI = 1.985-7.927; P < .001) and overall survival (HR = 2.092, 95% CI = 1.138-3.847; P = .018) for CC using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Then, the robustness of the signature was validated using GSE44001 and the Human Protein Atlas (HPA)
