Abstract
Objective: The Fas-activated serine/threonine kinase (FASTK) family of proteins has been recently found to be able to regulate mitochondrial gene expression post-transcriptionally. Nonetheless, there is a paucity of study about the role of the FASTK family in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC). This study was conducted to explore the correlation of FASTK family genes with expression, prognosis, and immune infiltration in KIRC.
Methods: We collected the data from the UALCAN, GeneMANIA, STRING, CancerSEA, cBioPortal, Kaplan-Meier plotter, GEPIA, TISIDB and TIMER databases to evaluate the genetic alterations, differential expression, prognostic significance, and immune cell infiltration of FASTKs in patients with KIRC.
Results: In tumor tissues of KIRC, the mRNA expression level of FASTK and TBRG4 was elevated, whereas that of FASTKD1, FASTKD2, and FASTKD5 was lowered compared with normal tissues (P < .05). Patients with KIRC and high FASTK and Transforming growth factor β regulator 4 (TBRG4) expression had worse overall survival (OS) and disease specific survival (DFS), while those with lower expression of FASTKD2/3/5 had worse outcomes. FASTK was positively correlated with DNA damage. FASTKD1 was positively related to differentiation. FASTKD2 was inversely related to proliferation and FASTKD5 was inversely related to invasion and EMT in KIRC cells. FASTK expression in KIRC was inversely linked to the presence of several immune cells including Tgd, macrophages, Tcm, and Mast cells (P < .05).
Conclusions: Our research provided fresh insight and in-depth analysis to the selection of prognostic biological markers of FASTK family members in KIRC.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
