A novel prognostic biomarker CD3G that correlates with the tumor microenvironment in cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT: Cervical cancer (CESC) is the fourth most common and death-causing gynecological cancer, mostly induced by infection of human papillomavirus (HPV). Multiple components of the tumor microenvironment (TME), such as tumor infiltrating immune cells, could be targets of immunotherapy for HPV-related CESC. However, little is known about the TME of CESC until now. Here, we aimed to uncover the pathogenesis as well as to identify novel biomarkers to predict prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy for CESC. Combining the transcriptomic data and clinical characteristics, we identified differentially expressed genes in CESC samples from TCGA database by comparing the two groups with different ImmuneScore and StromalScore. Next, we detected ten key genes based on the PPI network and survival analyses wit
