The aim of this study is to reveal the significance of glycolysis-related genes in the design of new brain gliomas treatment protocols. Towards this direction a feature selection and classification method, embedding the Relief-F filter criterion under a Support Vector Machines (SVM) classifier, has been introduced focusing on the identification of significant genetic alterations related to glycolysis. In particular a genomic (Microarray Expression) dataset, consisting of 14 glioma patients has been used for the statistical analysis. The results have demonstrated that a specific group of gene markers (HK, PGI, PFK, ALDO, GAPDH, PGK, PGM, ENO, PK, LDH, PDH and MDH) directly related to cell glycolysis, have a great impact on the discrimination of different grades of gliomas malignancy (AUROC of 0.98), thus leading to the conclusion that these markers could establish the foundations for new therapeutic approaches.
