Large tumor suppressor 2 is a prognostic biomarker and correlated with immune infiltrates in colorectal cancer

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy that has both low 5-year survival and high prevalence. Immunotherapy has achieved impressive progress for treatment of CRC, but still faces huge challenges. Although large tumor suppressor 2 (LATS2) is well accepted to be related to cancer progression,...

Immunotherapy has achieved impressive progress for treatment of CRC, but still faces huge challenges. Although large tumor suppressor 2 (LATS2) is well accepted to be related to cancer progression, the prognostic potential and immune response role of LATS2 expression in CRC remain unclear. To investigate the value of LATS2 for prognosis and immune infiltration, a retrospective study of 213 CRC patients was carried out.
