Sumario: | Over the years, molecular subtypes based on estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) status have been observed to effectively guide decision-making for the optimal treatment of patients with breast carcinoma (BRCA). However, despite this progress, there are still more than 41,000 BRCA-related fatalities each year in the United States. Moreover, effective drug targets for triple-negative breast carcinoma (TNBC) are still lacking. Given its high mortality rate, it is necessary to investigate more biomarkers with prognostic and pathological relevance in BRCA. In our study, we examined the expression patterns and prognostic implications of transmembrane P24 trafficking protein 9 (TMED9) in BRCA using multiple public cohorts and BRCA specimens collected from Shanghai General Hospital. In addition to this, in vitro experiments were also performed to evaluate the effects of TMED9 expression in BRCA cell proliferation and migration. Our results have demonstrated that a high expression of TMED9 promoted BRCA cell proliferation and migration and predicted poor prognosis in patients with BRCA. In conclusion, TMED9 is a potential prognostic indicator and a possible drug target of BRCA. |
