S100A6 is a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for human glioma.

ABSTRACT: S100 calcium-binding protein A6 (S100A6) is a protein that belongs to the S100 family. The present study aimed to investigate the function of S100A6 in the diagnosis and survival prediction of glioma and elucidated the potential processes affecting glioma development. The Cancer Genome Atlas database was searched to identify the relationship among S100A6 expression, immune cell infiltration, clinicopathological parameters and glioma prognosis. Several clinical cases were used to verify these findings. S100A6 gene expression was high in glioma tissues, suggesting its diagnostic significance. In particular, S100A6 upregulation in glioma tissues exhibited a significant and positive correlation with the World Health Organization (WHO) grade, histological type, age, sex, primary treatment outco
