N7-methyladenosine-induced SLC7A7 serves as a prognostic biomarker in pan-cancer and promotes CRC progression in colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: Solute transport family 7A member 7 (SLC7A7) mutations contribute to lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI), which is the mechanism of action that has been extensively studied. In colorectal cancer (CRC), SLC7A7 appears to play a role, but the features and mechanisms are not yet well understood. Survival was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier analysis. Enrichment analysis was performed to characterize, immune infiltration, methylation, genetic instability, and crucial pathways of SLC7A7. Afterward, functional experiments were conducted in vitro to investigate how SLC7A7 affects tumor metastasis. Mechanistically, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), western blot (WB), and methylated RNA immunoprecipitation (me-RIP) were carried out to confirm the methylation modification of SLC7A7 and related fu
