- Description
- Osteosarcoma, a malignant bone tumor characterized by a high rate of metastasis and poor survival, presents a critical need for identifying novel biomarkers associated with metastasis. In this study, we conducted an extensive analysis utilizing transcriptional and clinical data sourced from databases such as GEO, TCGA, CCLE, R2, and Xena. And we discovered that Ribosomal protein LP1 (RPLP1) ranked among the top upregulated genes in relation to osteosarcoma metastasis. Notably, RPLP1 exhibited significant expression in both osteosarcoma cell lines and patient samples. Moreover, multiple osteosarcoma studies revealed a strong correlation between RPLP1 overexpression and worse metastasis-free survival as well as overall survival. Additionally, we observed a consistent association between dysregulation of RPLP1 and reduced overall survival across various tumor types. Knocking down of RPLP1 led to the down-regulation of MYL5 and functional enrichment toward cell cycle and cellular interaction. Based on these findings, we propose that RPLP1 has the potential to serve as a prognostic biomarker, indicating increased metastasis and worse survival outcomes in osteosarcoma. These insights contribute to a better understanding of the disease and may pave the way for future research and therapeutic approaches.
