Pan-Cancer Analyses Reveal Oncogenic and Immunological Role of PLOD2.

ABSTRACT: Some previous studies have shown that PLOD2 has some value in tumorigenesis. However, the broad significance of PLOD2 has not been discussed in depth. This study was aimed at elaborated and summarized the value of PLOD2 in various tumors. First, we integrated GTEx, The Cancer Genome Atlas and Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia databases to analyze the expression of PLOD2, and found that it was expressed differently in normal tissues and significantly highly expressed in most tumors compared with normal tissues. Second, our analysis revealed that PLOD2 expression was negatively correlated with the prognosis of several tumors. For gastric cancer, the median overall survival time was significantly higher in the PLOD2 low expression group [HR 0.616 (95%CI 0.442-0.
