Identifying Key Genes for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma by Prioritized Consensus Differentially Expressed Genes Caused by Aberrant Methylation
Conclusions: Our integrative analysis provides reliable key genes for candidate biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis in NPC. Based on the combined evidence of promoter hypermethylation, expression up-regulation, and association with overall survival, genes such as SCUBE2, PRKCB, IKZF1, MAP4K1, and GATA6 could be promising novel diagnostic biomarkers, and miRNAs including MIR150, MIR152, and MIR34 could be candidate prognosis biomarkers.
