CYFIP2: potential pancreatic cancer biomarker and immunotherapeutic target
Bioinformatics analysis and in vitro experiments confirmed that CYFIP2 was differentially expressed in a variety of tumors and correlated with clinical stage, and could be used as a potential marker for evaluating the prognosis and immunotherapy of a variety of tumors, including KIRC (Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma), PAAD (Pancreatic adenocarcinoma), PAAD (Pancreatic adenocarcinoma), SKCM (Skin Cutaneous Melanoma), and UCEC (Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma).Mutations in the CYFIP2 gene and methylation indices can affect the prognosis of tumor patients. In addition, we found that CYFIP2 expression values in pancreatic cancer were positively correlated with the expression of most immune cells, especially CD8?+?T Cells, and significantly negatively correlated with macrophages M0, and negatively correlated with the metastatic and invasive ability of pancreatic cancer cells, which may provide new strategies and ideas for pancreatic cancer immunotherapy.
