Prognostic significance of SNCA and its methylation in bladder cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The epidemiological investigation of different cancer types in the global population has reported a decreased risk of bladder cancer (BLCA) in Parkinson's diseases (PD). SNCA a critical gene in PD pathology have been reported involved in tumorigenesis recently. However, the role of SNCA in BLCA remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the potential value of SNCA as a prognostic diagnostic molecular biomarker in BLCA.

Methods

In this study, we explored the expression pattern, prognostic value and promoter methylation level of SNCA in BLCA by GEPIA2, UALCAN, TCGA, GENT2, GEO and c-BioPortal database. Then, we used LinkedOmics database to obtain the co-expression genes of SNCA for further study by WGCNA. We further investigated the correlations between SNCA expre
