Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) stands as the prevailing form of primary bone cancer in clinical practice. Lack of effective treatment options and an overall poor prognosis are caused by the disease's exceptionally rare occurrence and unclear rationale.

Objective: This study's goal is to determine diagnostic marker genes involved in the progression of OS and investigate related pathways and mechanisms with the purpose of offering effective methods for OS diagnostics and therapy.

Methods: The Gene Expression Omnibus database provided the gene microarray data. Core genes were identified through differential expression analysis and WGCNA. Three techniques for machine learning, random forest, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and support vector machine recursive feature elimination, were used to further screen the core genes and obtain diagnostic marker genes for OS. The specificity and sensitivity of the diagnostic marker genes for OS diagnosis were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves. Western blotting analysis was used for preliminary validation of the diagnostic marker genes and their related pathways.

Results: Two diagnostic marker genes were identified through screening, including CEP55 and VWF. Receiver operating characteristic curves have been utilized to assess the diagnostic and therapeutic effects of CEP55 and VWF on OS. Western blotting analysis preliminarily validated the overexpression of CEP55 in OS and its capacity to control MMP2 and MMP9 levels by activating the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Conclusion: At the first time, this research shows that CEP55 and VWF are more powerful diagnostic and predictive indicators for OS. CEP55 holds the capacity to activate the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and modulate MMP2 and MMP9 levels, thereby positioning it as a promising target in OS treatment.
