Integrated pancancer analysis reveals the oncogene characteristics and prognostic value of DIP2B in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Disco-interaction protein 2 homologue B (DIP2B) plays an important role in DNA methylation. There have been many reports on DIP2B in various diseases, but neither the diagnostic value nor the prognostic value of DIP2B across cancer types has been deeply explored.

Methods

The expression levels of DIP2B in 33 cancer types were analysed based on data sets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database. The relationships of DIP2B expression with immune cell infiltration and immune-related gene expression were studied via the CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE and TISIDB tools. Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) was performed to identify pathways related to DIP2B. DIP2B knockdown by siRNA was performed in breast cancer cell lines to investigate
