Prognosis analysis performed with patients from the TCGA cohort revealed that those with CSMD3 mutation had an overall survival (OS) that was inferior to that of those with wild-type CSMD3. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and CIBERSORT analysis indicated that OC samples with CSMD3 mutations had significant involvement of pathways related to the immune response.Conclusion: In summary, we found that CSMD3 mutation is highly correlated with increased TMB and poor clinical prognosis and that it might function as a biomarker for predicting prognosis and choosing an immunotherapy regimen.Keywords: ovarian cancer, CSMD3, tumor mutation burden, prognosis, tumor-infiltrating immune cellsLu NLiu JXu MLiang JWang YWu ZXing YDiao FDove Medical Pressarticleovarian cancercsmd3tumor mutation burdenprognosistumor-infiltrating immune cellsMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of General Medicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 7647-7657 (2021)
