Identification of TNFAIP8 as an Immune-Related Biomarker Associated With Tumorigenesis and Prognosis in Cutaneous Melanoma Patients
Tumor necrosis factor-α–induced protein 8 (TNFAIP8) is a member of the TIPE/TNFAIP8 family which is associated with inflammation and tumorigenesis. The potential role of TNFAIP8 in a tumor immune microenvironment in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) has not yet been investigated. The TNFAIP8 expression...

| Sumario: | Tumor necrosis factor-α–induced protein 8 (TNFAIP8) is a member of the TIPE/TNFAIP8 family which is associated with inflammation and tumorigenesis. The potential role of TNFAIP8 in a tumor immune microenvironment in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) has not yet been investigated. The TNFAIP8 expression was evaluated via gene expression profiling interactive analysis (GEPIA). We also evaluated the influence of TNFAIP8 on overall survival via GEPIA and PrognoScan. After GO and KEGG pathway analyses, the correlation between the TNFAIP8 expression level and immune cells or gene markers of the immune infiltration level was explored by R-language. The result showed the TNFAIP8 expression was significantly reduced in SKCM in comparison with normal control. In SKCM, the TNFAIP8 expression in higher levels was associated with the better overall survival. The high expression of TNFAIP8 was positively correlated with the immune score and promoted immune cell infiltration in SKCM patients. TNFAIP8 can be a positive prognosis marker or new immunotherapy target in SKCM. |
