摘要

Glycolysis is recognized as a central metabolic pathway in the neoplastic evolution of gastric cancer, exerting profound effects on the tumor microenvironment and the neoplastic growth trajectory. However, the identification of key glycolytic genes that significantly affect gastric cancer prognosis remains underexplored. In this work, five machine-learning algorithms were used to elucidate the intimate association between the glycolysis-associated gene phosphofructokinase fructose-bisphosphate 3 (PFKFB3) and the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Validation across multiple independent datasets confirmed the prognostic significance of PFKFB3. Further, we delved into the functional implications of PFKFB3 in modulating immune responses and biological processes within gastric cancer patients, as well as its broader relevance across multiple cancer types. Results underscore the potential of PFKFB3 as a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in gastric cancer. Our project can be found at https://github.com/PiPiNam/ML-GCP.
