Pan-Cancer Analysis Identified C1ORF112 as a Potential Biomarker for Multiple Tumor Types.

ABSTRACT: C1ORF112 is an evolutionarily conserved gene across vertebrates. Over the last decade, studies have suggested that C1ORF112 may play a role in tumorigenesis. Using The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets, we explored the role of C1ORF112 across various tumor types in this study. In most tumor types, C1ORF112 expression was increased in tumor tissues compared to corresponding non-tumor tissues. In patients with certain tumor types, higher C1ORF112 expression was correlated with shorter overall survival, disease-free survival, and progression-free survival. Further analyses of C1ORF112 genetic alteration data showed that C1ORF112 amplification and mutations may have an impact on liver hepatocellular carcinoma and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma
