Core Tip
Core Tip: Centrosome abnormalities, as the main microtubule tissue center of animal cells, are associated with human colon cancer. Our aim was to investigate the role of centrosome related genes (CRGs) in colon cancer. A total of 726 CRGs were collected from the public database. We constructed a centrosome-related signature composed of four genes: TSC1, AXIN2, COPS7A, and MTUS1. Colon cancer patients with high-risk characteristics had a low survival rate. Patients with high-risk characteristics exhibited decreased plasma cell levels and memory CD4+ T cell activation. Regarding treatment response, patients with high-risk characteristics were resistant to immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy. The expression of COPS7A was relatively high in endothelial cells and fibroblasts. MTUS1 was highly expressed in endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and malignant cells. We constructed a prognostic marker related to the centrosome, which can accurately predict the prognosis of colon cancer patients and contribute to the development of individualized colon cancer treatment.
