ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype with a poor prognosis. Minichromosome maintenance genes (MCM2-7) crucial for DNA replication are significant biomarkers for various tumor types; however, their roles in TNBC remain underexplored. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We utilized four TNBC-related GEO databases to examine MCM2-7 gene expression and predict its prognosis in TNBC, performing single-cell analysis and GSEA to discover MCM6's potential function. The Cancer Dependency Map gene effect scores and CCK8 assay were used to assess MCM6's impact on TNBC cell proliferation. The correlations between MCM6 expression, immune infiltrates, and immune cells were also analyzed. WGCNA and LASSO Cox regression built a risk score model predicting TNBC patient survival based on MCM6-related gene expression.RESULTS:
MCM2-7 gene expression was higher in TNBC tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues. High MCM6 expression correlated with shorter TNBC patient survival time. GSEA and single-cell analysis revealed a relationship between elevated MCM6 expression and the cell cycle pathway. MCM6 knockdown inhibited TNBC cell proliferation. A risk model featuring MCM6, CDC23, and CCNB1 effectively predicts TNBC patient survival.CONCLUSIONS:
MCM6 overexpression in TNBC links to a worse prognosis and reduced cell proliferation upon MCM6 knockdown. We developed a risk score model based on MCM6-related genes predicting TNBC patient prognosis, potentially assisting future treatment strategies.
