Effects and Prognostic Values of Circadian Genes CSNK1E/GNA11/KLF9/THRAP3 in Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma via a Comprehensive Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is one of the most prevalent and deadly types of renal cancer in adults. Recent research has identified circadian genes as being involved in the development and progression of KIRC by altering their expression. This study aimed to identify circadian genes that are differentially expressed in KIRC and assess their role in KIRC progression. In KIRC, there were 553 differentially expressed rhythm genes (DERGs), with 300 up-regulated and 253 down-regulated DERGs. Functional enrichment analyses showed that DERGs were greatly enriched in the circadian rhythm and immune response pathways. Survival analyses indicated that higher expression levels of CSNK1E were related to shorter overall survival of KIRC patients, whereas lower expression levels of GNA11, K
