Abstract:Objective To find the key biomarkers related to the prognosis of breast cancer brain metastasis.Methods The microarray data set GSE125989 was retrieved from the GEO database,and the GEO2R tool was used to screen the relevant differentially expressed genes.The STRING database was used to analyze the protein-protein interactions of the differential genes,and the Cytoscape software was used for visualization and screening of key biomarkers.The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis database was used to determine the prognostic potential of the key biomarkers screened.Results In this study,311 differentially up-regulated genes and 104 differentially down-regulated genes were screened,and 10 key genes were screened,including fibronectin 1(FN1),vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA),type Ⅰcollagen α1 chain(COL1A1),matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP2),type Ⅲcollagen α1 chain(COL3A1),type Ⅰcollagen α2 chain(COL1A2),periosteal protein(POSTN),decorin(DCN),biglycan(BGN)and lysyl oxidase(LOX).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that high expressions of FN1 and VEGFA were associated with poor overall survival(OS)(FN1: HR=1.28,95%CI=1.03-1.59, P=0.023 00; VEGFA: HR=1.35,95%CI =1.09-1.68, P=0.005 50),and low expression of DCN was associated with poor OS(HR=0.69,95%CI=0.56-0.86, P=0.000 71).High expressions of FN1,VEGFA,COL1A1,POSTN,BGN,and LOX were associated with poor distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS)(FN1: HR=1.22,95%CI=1.01-1.48, P=0.041 00; VEGFA: HR=1.39,95%CI=1.14-1.68, P=0.000 95; COL1A1: HR=1.53,95%CI=1.09-2.14, P=0.012 00; POSTN: HR=1.61,95%CI=1.16-2.24, P=0.004 20; BGN: HR=1.29,95%CI=1.07-1.57, P=0.009 20; LOX: HR=1.28,95%CI=1.06-1.55, P=0.012 00),and low expression of DCN was associated with poor DMFS(HR=0.82,95%CI=0.67-0.99, P=0.042 00).Conclusion FN1,VEGFA and DCN can be used as key biomarkers related to the prognosis of breast cancer brain metastasis.
