Abstract

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequently identified malignancy of the brain. Due to the special tumor location, it is extremely urgent to explore key genes involved in the pathogenesis of GBM. In this study, we tried to identify vital genes that participate in the GBM progression by analyzing TCGA-sourced transcriptome data and identified 3183 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Meanwhile, we also observed that CRYGN, MICAL2, BICDL1, PLK2, MTHFD2, OSMR, COL22A1, MSTN, and G0S2 expressions were significantly associated with patients’ survival. Immune infiltration analysis indicated that eight genes enhanced the immune infiltration in GBM, while BICDL1 had no significant effect. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that the eight genes are potential key genes involved in GBM and significantly connected to patients’ prognosis.
