Identification of four gastric cancer subtypes based on genetic analysis of cholesterogenic and glycolytic pathways.

ABSTRACT: Warburg phenomenon refers to the development of unique metabolic patterns during the growth of tumor cells. This study stratified gastric cancer into prognostic metabolic subgroups according to changes in gene expressions related to glycolysis and cholesterol synthesis. The RNA-seq expression data, single nucleotide variants (SNV), short insertions and deletions (InDel) mutation data, copy number variation (CNV) data and clinical follow-up information data of gastric cancer tissues were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. ConsensusClusterPlus was used to stratify the metabolic subtypes of gastric cancer. Four metabolic subtypes (Cholesterogenic, Glycolytic, Mixed and Quiescent) of gastric cancer were identified, and patients with cholesterogenic tumors had the longest
