Prognostic Value of YTHDF2 in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: m6A, the main form of mRNA modification, participates in regulating multiple normal and pathological biological events, especially in tumorigenesis. However, there is little known about the association of m6A-related genes with prognosis of clear cell renal cell cancer (ccRCC). Therefore, the prognostic value of m6A-related genes was investigated using Kaplan-Meier curves of overall survival (OS) with the log-rank test and Cox regression analysis. The differential expression of YTHDF2 mRNA in ccRCC and tumor-adjacent normal tissues and associated with clinicopathological characteristics was also analyzed. The alteration of cancer signaling pathways was screened by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA). Univariate analysis showed that 15 m6A-related genes (including YTHDF2) were closely relat
