USP35 is a Potential Immunosuppressive Factor in Skin Cutaneous Melanoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

As one of the most immunogenic malignancies, skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) is mainly characterized by a high prevalence in immune-compromised patients and a brisk lymphocyte infiltration in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, to date, studies on deubiquitination in SKCM are still very limited.

Methods

Public data with regard to this study in SKCM patients were acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene-Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. We stratified TCGA-SKCM cases using consensus clustering and identified independent prognostic factors in deubiquitinating enzymes encoding genes (DECGs) by LASSO-Cox analysis. USP35 transcriptome level was examined using public data and validated by Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining at the protein l
