Abstract

Gliomas are common brain tumors with poor prognosis. F-box protein39 (FBXO39) is found to be increased in a variety of malignancies, but its expression in gliomas is unknown. Here, we report that FBXO39 as an oncogene is upregulated in glioma and associated with poor prognosis. The degree of FBXO39 positive expression is doubtlessly concomitant with the grade of glioma. The data analyses show that patients with high FBXO39 expression have poor overall survival. What's more, FBXO39 accelerates the invasion and migration abilities of glioma cells and promotes glioma stem cell growth and stemness. In summary, these results suggest that FBXO39 is expected to become a new biological target for judging the prognosis and treatment of glioma.
