Comprehensive Analysis of Metabolic Genes in Breast Cancer Based on Multi-Omics Data.

ABSTRACT: Background: Reprogramming of cell metabolism is one of the most important hallmarks of breast cancer. This study aimed to comprehensively analyze metabolic genes in the initiation, progression, and prognosis of breast cancer. Materials and Methods: Data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) in breast cancer were downloaded including RNA-seq, copy number variation, mutation, and DNA methylation. A gene co-expression network was constructed by the weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) package in R. Association of metabolic genes with tumor-related immune cells and clinical parameters were also investigated. Results: We summarized 3,620 metabolic genes and observed mutations in 2,964 genes, of which the most frequently mutated were PIK3CA (51%), TNN (26%), and KMT2C
