Identifying LATS2 as a prognostic biomarker relevant to immune infiltrates in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: According to the TIMER database, large tumor suppressor 2 (LATS2) is differentially expressed in various tumors. However, the correlation between LATS2 and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and the association between LATS2 and immune infiltration in ESCC remain unclear. Our synthetic research on LATS2 in ESCC revealed that the expression was low in esophageal squamous epithelium tissues, revealing the pernicious and adverse prognosis of ESCC. The Kaplan-Meier survival investigation pointed out that low LATS2 expression would result in an adverse prognosis. Biological investigation indicated that LATS2 was engaged in cell migration, adhesion, and junction. To further explore the relationship between LATS2 and tumor immunity, we utilized CIBERSORT to assess immune infiltration. The
