Bioinformatics Identification of TUBB as Potential Prognostic Biomarker for Worse Prognosis in ERα-Positive and Better Prognosis in ERα-Negative Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Tubulin β class I gene (TUBB) is highly expressed in various cancers and plays several roles in carcinogenesis. However, the prognostic value of TUBB in breast cancer remains to be investigated. GEPIA and Breast Cancer Gene-Expression Miner were used to explore TUBB expression in breast cancer patients. Kaplan-Meier Plotter was used to assess the relationship between TUBB expression and several prognostic indicators including overall, distant metastasis-free, and relapse-free survival in ERα-positive and ERα-negative breast cancer. The genes that correlate with TUBB in ERα-positive and ERα-negative breast cancer were explored and the pathways were investigated using GSCA. The correlation between TUBB and several gene markers of immune cells was exp
