Human Protein Atlas tnfrsf12a
Differential gene screening and prognostic model construction. (A) The Venn diagram shows the gene intersection obtained from four differential gene screening methods (edgeR, DESeq2, Wilcoxon, and limma), with 86 common differential genes selected. (B) Univariate Cox regression identifies significant gene‐survival correlations, with hazard ratios (HR) and p ‐values illustrated in the forest plot. (C) LASSO regression cross‐validation determines the optimal λ value, with red dots representing the mean error of cross‐validation and gray bars indicating the standard deviation. (D) The LASSO regression path plot shows the trend of regression coefficients as λ values change, with coefficients gradually shrinking to zero and ultimately retaining a few key genes. (E) Multivariate Cox regression analysis selected three key genes: VAV3, <t>TNFRSF12A,</t> and PLA2G2A , showing their hazard ratios (HR) and p ‐values.

Schematic of lactate metabolism‐immune regulation‐related genes altering the tumor microenvironment in glioma. In glioma, clustering analysis based on lactate metabolism gene sets identified PLA2G2A, TNFRSF12A, and VAV3 as differentially expressed genes included in the predictive model. PLA2G2A alters the tumor microenvironment by remodeling the ECM, promoting tumor‐associated inflammation, and activating epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), thereby enhancing tumor cell proliferation and invasion, ultimately leading to poor prognosis.

Article Snippet: To further confirm the expression patterns and possible biological roles of the candidate genes in tumor tissues, we first analyzed the immunohistochemistry results of VAV3, TNFRSF12A, and PLA2G2A using the HPA (Human Protein Atlas) database.
