Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most devastating brain tumor with less than 5% of patients surviving 5 years following diagnosis. Many studies have focused on the genetics of GBM with the aim of improving the prognosis of GBM patients. We investigated specific genes whose expressions are significantly related to both the length of the overall survival and the progression-free survival in patients with GBM. We obtained data for 12,042 gene mRNA expressions in 525 GBM tissues from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Among those genes, we identified independent genes significantly associated with the prognosis of GBM. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the genes significant for predicting the long-term survival of patients with GBM. Bioinformatics analysis was also performed for the significant genes. We identified 33 independent genes whose expressions were significantly associated with the prognosis of 525 patients with GBM. Among them, the expressions of five genes were independently associated with an improved prognosis of GBM, and the expressions of 28 genes were independently related to a poorer prognosis of GBM. The expressions of the ADAM22, ATP5C1, RAC3, SHANK1, AEBP1, C1RL, CHL1, CHST2, EFEMP2, and PGCP genes were either positively or negatively related to the long-term survival of GBM patients. Using a large-scale and open database, we found genes significantly associated with both the prognosis and long-term survival of patients with GBM. We believe that our findings may contribute to improving the understanding of the mechanisms underlying GBM.
