description Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases developed through tumorigenesis and could be fatal if it reaches the metastatic phase. The novelty of the present investigation is to explore the prognostic biomarkers in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that could develop glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) due to metastasis. The analysis was conducted using RNA-seq datasets for both HCC (PRJNA494560 and PRJNA347513) and GBM (PRJNA494560 and PRJNA414787) from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). This study identified 13 hub genes found to be overexpressed in both GBM and HCC. A promoter methylation study showed these genes to be hypomethylated. Validation through genetic alteration and missense mutations resulted in chromosomal instability, leading to improper chromosome segregation, causing aneuploidy. A 13-gene predictive model was obtained and validated using a KM plot. These hub genes could be prognostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets, inhibition of which could suppress tumorigenesis and metastasis.
