CILP, a Putative Gene Associated With Immune Infiltration in Breast Cancer Brain Metastases.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer (BC) is the second leading cause of brain metastases (BM), with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of our study was to explore the effect of the cartilage intermediate layer protein (CILP) on breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM). Using a weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) in GSE100534 and GSE125989 datasets, we found that the yellow module was closely related to the occurrence of BCBM, and CILP was a hub gene in the yellow module. Low CILP expression was associated with a poor prognosis, and it was an independent prognostic factor for stage III-IV BC determined using Cox regression analysis. A nomogram model including CILP expression was established to predict the 5-, 7-, and 10-year overall survival (OS) probabilities of stage III-IV BC patients. We foun
