A Volcano plot showing the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to TMEM158. We identified a total of 776 upregulated genes and 1040 downregulated genes. B GSEA and HALLMARK gene set enrichment analysis were used to enrich the pathways related to TMEM158-associated genes. C GSEA showed that TMEM158-associated genes were enriched in the EMT process. (NES = 2.89, p < 0.0001). D TMEM158-associated genes were enriched in the STAT3 signaling pathway by GSEA. (NES = 2.20, p < 0.0001) EF Western blotting results show changes in TMEM158 and EMT marker expression (E-Ca, N-Ca, vimentin, and Snail) in U87MG, U251MG, and TJ905 glioma cells after overexpression and knockdown of TMEM158. GH TMEM158, STAT3, and p-STAT3 protein levels in U87MG, U251MG, and TJ905 glioma cells after overexpression and knockdown TMEM158 detected by western blotting.
