Integrated Profiling Identifies PLOD3 as a Potential Prognostic and Immunotherapy Relevant Biomarker in Colorectal Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Procollagen-Lysine,2-Oxoglutarate 5-Dioxygenase 3 (PLOD3) is related to a variety of human diseases. However, its function in Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains uncertain. PLOD3 expression was analyzed using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) pan-cancer data. DAVID was used for enrichment analysis of PLOD3-related genes. The correlation between PLOD3 expression and immune cell infiltration was evaluated. Four expression profile datasets (GSE17536, GSE39582, GSE74602, and GSE113513) from Gene Expression Omnibus, and two proteomic datasets were used as validation cohorts for assessing the diagnostic and prognostic value of PLOD3 in CRC. What's more, we performed immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining for PLOD3 in 160 paired CRC specimens and corresponding adjacent no
