Aims:   The solute carrier family 2 (SLC2) genes are comprised of 14 members which are essential for the maintenance of glucose uptake and survival of tumour cells. This study was performed to investigate the associations of SLC2 family gene expression with mortality in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods:   Clinical features and SLC2 family gene expression data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus database. The associations between SLC2 family gene expression and clinicopathologic features were analyzed using linear regression model. Kaplan-Meier survival, univariate, multivariate survival analyses and validation analysis were performed to analyze the associations between SLC2 family gene expression and patients’ overall survival.Results:   Patient mortality was positively associated with age and cytogenetic risk in AML patients. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis suggested that patients with high SLC2A5 and SLC2A10 expression showed poorer survival than those with low SLC2A5 and SLC2A10 expression. In contrast, patients with high SLC2A13 expression exhibited better prognosis than those with low SLC2A13 expression ( P &lt; 0.05 for all cases, log rank test). Multivariate survival analysis and validation analysis confirmed that high expression of SLC2A5 and SLC2A10 and low expression of SLC2A13 were associated with increased mortality ( P = 0.00, Odd ratio [OR]:4.05, 95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 1.73-10.22; P = 0.00, OR: 3.66, 95% CI: 1.54-9.25; and P = 0.01, OR: 0.26, 95% CI: 0.09-0.68, respectively).Conclusion:   SLC family gene expression, such as SLC2A5, SLC2A10 and SLC2A13, was significantly associated with prognosis of AML patients, their expression levels might become useful prognostic biomarkers in AML.
