Abstract
Abstract
Background
OS is the most common malignant tumor of bone which was featured with osteoid or immature bone produced by the malignant cells, and biomarkers are urgently needed to identify patients with this aggressive disease.
Methods
We downloaded gene expression profiles from GEO and TARGET datasets for OS, respectively, and performed WGCNA to identify the key module. Whereafter, functional annotation and GSEA demonstrated the relationships between target genes and OS.
Results
In this study, we discovered four key genes—ALOX5AP, HLA-DMB, HLA-DRA and SPINT2 as new prognostic markers and confirmed their relationship with OS metastasis in the validation set.
Conclusions
In conclusion, ALOX5AP, HLA-DMB, HLA-DRA and SPINT2 were identified by bioinformatics analysis as possible prognostic markers for OS metastasis.
