Overexpression of DGKI in Gastric Cancer Predicts Poor Prognosis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Diacylglycerol kinase iota (DGKI) is overexpressed in a variety of cancers and is associated with poor prognosis in colon cancer. This study evaluated the prognostic value of DGKI in gastric cancer (GC) using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Methods: RNA sequencing results and clinical data of gastric adenoma and adenocarcinoma samples were obtained from the TCGA database (https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov). The Wilcoxon or Kruskal-Wallis test and logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between DGKI and the clinicopathological characteristics of GC patients. Univariate Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of GC patients and the relationship between DGKI and overall survival tim
