Abstract
Protein arginine methylation is among the most important post-translational modifications and has been studied in cancers such as those of the lung and breast. However, comparatively less has been investigated regarding hepatocellular carcinoma, with an annual incidence of almost one million cases. Through using in silico methods, this study examined arginine methylation-related gene expression and methylation levels, and alongside network and enrichment analysis attempted to find how said genes can drive tumorigenesis and offer possible therapeutic targets. We found a robust relationship among the selected methylation genes, with ⅞ showing prognostic value regarding overall survival, and a medley of non-arginine methylation pathways also being highlighted through the aforementioned analysis. This study furthers our knowledge of the methylation and expression patterns of arginine histone methylation-related genes, offering jumping points for further wet-lab studies.
