Identification of MIR600HG/hsa-miR-342-3p/ANLN network as a potential prognosis biomarker associated with lmmune infiltrates in pancreatic cancer

Abstract

Abstract Pancreatic cancer is one of the tumors with the worst prognosis, causing serious harm to human health. The RNA network and immune response play an important role in tumor progression. While a systematic RNA network linked to the tumor immune response remains to be further explored in pancreatic cancer. Based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases, the MIR600HG/hsa-miR-342-3p/ANLN network was determined. WB and IHC were used to confirm the high expression of ANLN in pancreatic cancer. The prognostic model based on the RNA network could effectively predict the survival prognosis of patients. The analysis of immune infiltration showed that the MIR600HG/hsa-miR-342-3p/ANLN network altered the level of infiltration of T helper 2 (Th2) and effector memory T (Tem) cells. Furthermore, we found that the chemokines chemokine ligand (CCL) 5 and CCL14 may play a key role in immune cell infiltration mediated by the RNA network. In conclusion, this study constructed a prognostic model based on the MIR600HG/hsa-miR-342-3p/ANLN network and found that it may function in tumor immunity.
