Classification molecular subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma based on PRMT-related genes.

ABSTRACT: Background: Recent studies highlighted the functional role of protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) catalyzing the methylation of protein arginine in malignant progression of various tumors. Stratification the subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is fundamental for exploring effective treatment strategies. Here, we aim to conduct a comprehensive analysis of PRMTs with bioinformatic tools to identify novel biomarkers for HCC subtypes classification and prognosis prediction, which may be potential ideal targets for therapeutic intervention. Methods: The expression profiling of PRMTs in HCC tissues was evaluated based on the data of TCGA-LIHC cohort, and further validated in HCC TMA cohort and HCC cell lines. HCC was systematically classified based on PRMT family rel
