Clinical Prognostic Value of the PLOD Gene Family in Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Accumulating evidence has implicated members of the procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase (PLOD) gene family, PLOD1, PLOD2, and PLOD3, in cancer progression and metastasis. However, their expression, prognostic value, and mechanisms underlying their roles in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have not yet been reported. We downloaded PLOD data for LUAD and normal tissues from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). PLOD1-3 protein expression was evaluated using the Clinical Proteomics Tumor Analysis Consortium and Human Protein Atlas. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using STRING software. The "ClusterProfiler" package was used for functional-enrichment analysis. The relationship between PLOD mRNA expression and
