TMEM35B as a novel biomarker for diagnosing gliomas.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

There is little information about transmembrane protein 35B (TMEM35B) expression in glioma, and its functions in glioma remains no clue.

Patients & methods

Immunohistochemistry was used to measure TMEM35B expression levels and CCK8 and Transwell assays were analyzed the proliferative and migratory and invasive.

Results

TMEM35B protein was significantly higher in gliomas and correlated with a higher tumor TNM stages. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that TMEM35B had high diagnostic value in distinguishing among glioma, normal tissues, tumor stages III+IV, and I+II. Additionally, TMEM35B knockdown inhibited the proliferative, migratory, and invasive capacities of glioma cells.

Conclusions

TMEM35B expression is upregulated in gliomas,
