Bioinformatics Analysis of the Relationship between CEACAM8 and Survival in Patients with Gastric Cancer

胃癌在世界范围内直接影响着人类的生活质量，癌胚抗原相关细胞粘附分子(CEACAM)亚家族的一些成员在肿瘤中不受调控。对于CEACAM8在胃癌中的功能知之甚少。为了解决这一问题，本研究使用UALCAN、Kaplan-Meier Plotter、metascape数据库研究了CEACAM8在胃癌预后中的作用。发现CEACAM8的过表达与胃癌患者的临床肿瘤分期和病理肿瘤分级显著相关。此外，CEACAM8 mRNA的高表达与胃癌患者较短的总生存期(OS)显著相关。总的来说，CEACAM8可能是胃癌患者生存的预后生物标志物。Gastric cancer directly affects human quality of life worldwide, and some members of the carcinoembryonic antigen-associated cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) subfamily are not regulated in tumors. Little is known about the function of CEACAM8 in gastric cancer. In order to solve this problem, this study used UALCAN, Kaplan-Meier Plotter and metascape databases to study the role of CEACAM8 in the prognosis of gastric cancer. It was found that the overexpression of CEACAM8 was significantly correlated with the clinical tumor stage and pathological tumor grade of gastric cancer patients. In addition, high expression of CEACAM8 mRNA was significantly associated with shorter overall survival (OS) in patients with gastric cancer. Overall, CEACAM8 may be a prognostic biomarker for survival in patients with gastric cancer.
