Application of apoptosis-related genes in a multiomics-related prognostic model study of gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common tumors in the world, and apoptosis is closely associated with GC. A number of therapeutic methods have been implemented to increase the survival in GC patients, but the outcomes remain unsatisfactory. Apoptosis is a highly conserved form of cell death, but aberrant regulation of the process also leads to a variety of major human diseases. As variations of apoptotic genes may increase susceptibility to gastric cancer. Thus, it is critical to identify novel and potent tools to predict the overall survival (OS) and treatment efficacy of GC. The expression profiles and clinical characteristics of TCGA-STAD and GSE15459 cohorts were downloaded from TCGA and GEO. Apoptotic genes were extracted from the GeneCards database. Apoptosis risk scores were c
