| Abstract | Objective This study aimed to evaluate CTF1 expression in glioma, its relationship to patient prognosis and the tumor immune microenvironment, and effects on glioma phenotypes to identify a new therapeutic target for treating glioma precisely. Methods We initially assessed the expression of CTF1, a member of the IL-6 family, in glioma, using bioinformatics tools and publicly available databases. Furthermore, we examined the correlation between CTF1 expression and tumor prognosis, DNA methylation patterns, m6A-related genes, potential biological functions, the immune microenvironment, and genes associated with immune checkpoints. We also explored potential associations with drug sensitivity. To assess the impact on glioma cell proliferation and apoptosis, we employed various assays, including the Cell Counting Kit-8, colony formation assay, and flow cytometry. Results CTF1 gene and protein expression were significantly elevated in glioma tissues, and correlated with malignancy and poor prognosis. CTF1 was an independent prognostic factor and negatively associated with DNA methylation. The involvement of CTF1 in m6A modifications contributed to glioma progression. Enrichment analysis revealed immune response pathways linked with CTF1 in glioma, including natural killer cell cytotoxicity, NOD-like receptor signaling, Toll-like receptor signaling, antigen processing, chemokine signaling, and cytokine receptor interactions. CTF1 expression correlated positively with pathways related to apoptosis, inflammation, proliferation, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and PI3K–AKT–mTOR signaling. Additionally, CTF1 expression was positively associated with macrophage, eosinophil, and neutrophil contents and immune checkpoint-related genes, but negatively associated with sensitivity to 14 drugs. In vitro experiments confirmed that CTF1 knockdown inhibited glioma cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Conclusion This study identifies CTF1 as a significant independent prognostic factor that is closely associated with the tumor immune microenvironment in glioma. Additionally, reduced expression of CTF1 suppresses the proliferation and induces apoptosis of glioma cells in vitro. Consequently, CTF1 is a potentially promising novel therapeutic target for glioma treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
