The Tumorigenic Effect of the High Expression of Ladinin-1 in Lung Adenocarcinoma and Its Potential as a Therapeutic Target.

ABSTRACT: The oncogenic role of Ladinin-1 (LAD1), an anchoring filament protein, is largely unknown. In this study, we conducted a series of studies on the oncogenic role of LAD1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Firstly, we analyzed the aberrant expression of LAD1 in LUAD and its correlation with patient survival, tumor immune infiltration, and the activation of cancer signaling pathways. Furthermore, the relationship between LAD1 expression and K-Ras and EGF signaling activation, tumor cell proliferation, migration, and colony formation was studied by gene knockout/knockout methods. We found that LAD1 was frequently overexpressed in LUAD, and high LAD1 expression predicts a poor prognosis. LAD1 exhibits promoter hypomethylation in LUAD, which may contribute to its mRNA upregulation. Single-sample gen
