Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) assay, wound healing assay using two glioma cell lines, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), KEGG and gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, immune infiltration analysis, temozolomide (TMZ) sensitivity analysis, and single-cell sequence analysis were performed to explore the underlying mechanisms of high CENPA expression and its effect on glioma development. Here, CENPA is linked to central nervous system cancer.
