Sumario:Glioma and pancreatic cancer are tumors with a high degree of malignancy, morbidity, and mortality. The present study explored possible molecular mechanisms and potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker-PLPP4 of glioma and PAAD. PLPP4 is differentially elevated in glioma and PAAD tissues. Statistical analysis from TCGA demonstrated that high expression of PLPP4 significantly and positively correlated with clinicopathological features, including pathological grade and poor overall survival in glioma and PAAD patients. Following this, the methylation levels of PLPP4 also affected overall survival in clinical tissue samples. Silencing PLPP4 inhibited proliferation, invasion, and migration in LN229 cells and PANC-1 cells. Moreover, the combination of multiple proteins for the prognosis prediction of glioma and PAAD was evaluated. These results were conducted to elaborate on the potential roles of the biomarker-PLPP4 in clonability and invasion of glioma and PAAD cells.
