Development and Validation of an RNA Binding Protein-associated Prognostic Model for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

The survival rate of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma is variable. The abnormal expression of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is closely related to the occurrence and development of malignant tumors. The primary aim of this study was to identify RBPs related to the prognosis of liver cancer and to construct a prognostic model of liver cancer.

Methods

We downloaded the hepatocellular carcinoma gene sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (cancergenome.nih.gov/) database, constructed a protein-protein interaction network, and used Cytoscape to realize the visualization. From among 325 abnormally expressed genes for RBPs, 9 (XPO5, enhancer of zeste 2 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit [EZH2], CSTF2, BRCA1, RRP12, MRPL54, EIF2AK4, PPARGC1A, and SEPS
