Abstract:
Screening for hub genes associated with gastric cancer and elucidating possible molecular mechanisms of gastric cancer. Five gastric cancer-related gene expression profiles were extracted from the GEO database, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained using GEO2R. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analyses were performed by DAVID, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of the DEGs was constructed by STRING and Cytoscape software. Survival value for hub gene comes from the Kaplan-Meier plotter platform. In addition, potential miRNAs of hub genes were predicted by miRWalk. Four hundred seventy-six DEGs were identified in the five expression profiles, these genes are mainly involved in extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction, chemical carcinogenesis, gastric acid secretion, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Combined with the results of the PPI network and CytoHubba, six hub genes were screened:
