PG - 779153 LID - 10.3389/fonc.2021.779153 [doi] LID - 779153 AB - BACKGROUND: Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is a leading malignant cancer of the head and neck. Patients with LSCC, in which the cancer has infiltrated and metastasized, have a poor prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify more potential targets for drugs and biomarkers for early diagnosis. METHODS: RNA sequence data from LSCC and patients' clinical traits were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) (GSE142083) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) were performed to identify hub genes. Gene ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis, prognostic value analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, gene mutation analysis, tumor-infiltrating immune cell abundance profile estimation, gene set variation analysis (GSVA), and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were performed. Single-gene RNA sequencing data were obtained from the GSE150321 dataset. Cell proliferation and viability were confirmed by the CCK-8 assay and real-time PCR. RESULTS: A total of 701 DEGs, including 329 upregulated and 372 downregulated genes, were screened in the GSE142083 dataset. Using WGCNA, three modules were identified to be closely related to LSCC. After intersecting the DEGs and performing univariate and multivariate Cox analyses, a novel prognostic model based on three genes (SLC35C1, HOXB7, and TEDC2) for LSCC was established. Interfering TEDC2 expression inhibited tumor cell proliferation and migration. CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that SLC35C1, HOXB7, and TEDC2 have the potential to become new therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers for LSCC.
