SETDB1 promotes progression through upregulation of SF3B4 expression and regulates the immunity in ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecologic malignant tumour. The mechanism promoting OC initiation and progression remains unclear. SET domain bifurcated histone lysine methyltransferase 1(SETDB1) acts as an oncogene in a variety of tumours. This study aims to explore the role of SETDB1 in OC.

Methods

GEO, TCGA, CSIOVDB and CPTAC databases jointly analysed SETDB1 mRNA and protein expression. Effect of SETDB1 expression on the clinical prognosis of OC patients was analysed through online Kaplan‒Meier plotter and CSIOVDB database. Then, the effect of SETDB1 in OC cells progression and mobility was examined using MTT, EdU, colony formation and transwell assay. Additionally, Cistrome DB database was used to visualize the binding of SETDB1 protein and splicing
