Combined ARHGEF6 and Tumor Mutational Burden may serve as a potential biomarker for immunotherapy of lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: ARHGEF6, a member of the Dbl-related guanylate exchanger (GEF) family, is highly expressed in gastric cancer and glioma. However, scientists still do not know whether it plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of lung adenocarcinoma（LUAD）. The prognostic significance of ARHGEF6 expression was assessed by TCGA data. This paper focuses on the level of immune infiltration associated with ARHGEF6 and explored the relationship of this gene with the tumor mutational burden (TMB), immune checkpoints, and drug sensitivity. The results showed that the high expression of ARHGEF6 was associated with a good prognosis in LUAD patients, and positively correlated with a variety of immune cells and drugs. Meanwhile, ARHGEF6 was found to be negatively correlated with TMB. In conclusion, the results of thi
