G-protein Coupled Receptor 34 Promotes Gliomagenesis by Inducing Proliferation and Malignant Phenotype via TGF-Beta/Smad Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT: Background: G-protein coupled receptor 34 (GPR34) is involved in cell motility, differentiation, and mitosis. GPR34 was reported to be highly expressed and play an oncogenic role in several solid tumors. Here, we investigated the mechanisms underlying how GPR34 promotes glioma progression. Methods: Bioinformatic analysis was performed on RNA-seq and clinical data from the gene expression omnibus (GEO), cancer genome atlas (TCGA), and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases. TIMER database and single-sample GSEA (ssGAEA) method were used to investigate the association between the GPR34 expression and immune infiltration level in glioma. Cox regression analysis was employed to ascertain whether the risk signature was an independent prognostic indicator for glioma. The viabi
