Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major public health problem worldwide. Cancer is the second most common cause of death in the United States and the leading cause of death in China. There is compelling evidence that individual risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is strongly influenced by genetic factors. DM and cancer may interact with one another; some kinds of cancer accompany DM, and DM can also promote cancer. Here, an analysis was conducted of diabetes mellitus-related gene (DM-gene) expression levels in tumor and normal tissues, clinical parameters, tumor stages, mutations, copy number variations (CNVs), immune cell infiltration, survival, gene enrichment, and gene ontology annotations. This analysis revealed six genes that appear to play key roles in lung cancer survival: MTMR3 (in lung adenocarcinoma [LUAD]) and COBLL1, PPARG, PPIP5K2, RREB1, and WFS1 (in lung squamous cell carcinoma [LUSC]). The results suggested that clinical practitioners and researchers should account for PPARG and RREB1 expression when selecting or testing chemotherapy drugs.
