Development of a prognostic model based on an immunogenomic landscape analysis of medulloblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Medulloblastoma (MB) is one of the most common central nervous system tumors in children. At present, the vital role of immune abnormalities has been proved in tumorigenesis and progression. However, the immune mechanism in MB is still poorly understood. In the present study, 51 differentially expressed immune-related genes (DE-IRGs) and 226 survival associated immune-related genes (Sur-IRGs) were screened by an integrated analysis of multi-array. Moreover, the potential pathways were enriched by functional analysis, such as 'cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction', 'Ras signaling pathway', 'PI3K-Akt signaling pathway' and 'pathways in cancer'. Furthermore, 10 core IRGs were identified from DE-IRGs and Sur-IRGs. And the potential regulatory mechanisms of core IRGs were also explored. Addit
