Abstract The impact of different iron metabolism processes (DIMP) on ovarian cancer remains unclear. In this study, we
employed various gene chips and databases to investigate the role of DIMP in the initiation and development of ovarian
cancer. cBioPortal was used to determine mutations in DIMP-associated genes in ovarian cancer. Kaplan-Meier plotter
was used to examine the influence of DIMP on the prognosis of ovarian cancer. By analyzing 1669 serous ovarian cancer
cases, we identified a range of mutations in iron metabolism genes, notably in those coding for the transferrin receptor
(19%), melanotransferrin (19%), and ceruloplasmin (10%) in the iron import… More >
