Association of FLG mutation with tumor mutation load and clinical outcomes in patients with gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in the world with a poor prognosis due to genetic heterogeneity. The present study aimed to explore potential prognostic predictors and therapeutic targets that can be used for STAD treatment. Methods: We collected relevant data of STAD patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), including somatic mutation, transcriptome, and survival data. We performed a series of analyses such as tumor mutational burden (TMB), immune infiltration, and copy number variation (CNV) analysis to evaluate the potential mechanism of filaggrin (FLG) mutation in gastric cancer. Gene ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis, and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were perf
