POU4F1 Drives Colorectal Cancer Progression by Promoting Cell Proliferation, Metastasis, and Chemoresistance

This study successfully identified crucial genes associated with colorectal cancer recurrence and developed a robust RAGS prognostic model. The XGBoost algorithm underscored the importance of POU4F1 in predicting colorectal cancer recurrence. Our functional analysis of POU4F1 provides fresh insights into colorectal cancer progression mechanisms and informs the development of targeted therapeutic approaches. These findings not only enhance our understanding of colorectal cancer's molecular underpinnings but also establish a solid foundation for advancing precision diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice.
