CKS2 (CDC28 protein kinase regulatory subunit 2) is a prognostic biomarker in lower grade glioma: a study based on bioinformatic analysis and immunohistochemistry.

ABSTRACT: Gliomas account for the highest cases of primary brain malignancies. Whereas previous studies have demonstrated the roles of CDC28 Protein Kinase Regulatory Subunit 2 (CKS2) in various cancer types, its functions in lower grade gliomas (LGGs) remain elusive. This study aimed to profile the expression and functions of CKS2 in LGG. Multiple online databases such as The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA), Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2nd edition (GEPIA2), Tumor Immune Estimation Resource 2nd edition (TIMER2.0) as well as Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were used in this study. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed to evaluate CKS2 protein expression. Our data demonstrated upregulation of CKS2 in LGG tissues at both mRNA and protein level, esp
