MYCBP2 expression correlated with inflammatory cell infiltration and prognosis immunotherapy in thyroid cancer patients.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have shown promising results for the treatment of multiple cancers. ICIs and related therapies may also be useful for the treatment of thyroid cancer (TC). In TC, Myc binding protein 2 (MYCBP2) is correlated with inflammatory cell infiltration and cancer prognosis. However, the relationship between MYCBP2 expression and ICI efficacy in TC patients is unclear.

Methods

We downloaded data from two TC cohorts, including transcriptomic data and clinical prognosis data. The Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion (TIDE) algorithm was used to predict the efficacy of ICIs in TC patients. MCPcounter, xCell, and quanTIseq were used to calculate immune cell infiltration scores. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and single sample GSEA (s
