Background:
Accurate regulation of gene expression is crucial for normal development and function of cells. The prognostic significance and potential carcinogenic mechanisms of the related gene JARID2 in OSCC are not yet clear, but existing research has indicated a significant association between the two.
Methods And Materials:
The relationship between the expression of the JARID2 gene in tumor samples of OSCC patients and clinical pathological factors was analyzed using immunohistochemistry experiments and RT-qPCR analysis. Based on the clinical pathological data of patients, bioinformatics analysis was conducted using public databases to determine the function of JARID2 in OSCC. Knockdown OSCC cell lines were constructed, and the impact of JARID2 on the biological behavior of OSCC cell lines was assessed through CCK-8, wound healing assay, and transwell analysis.
Results:
Immunohistochemistry experiments confirmed the correlation between JARID2 and the prognosis of OSCC patients, while RT-qPCR experiments demonstrated its expression levels in tissue and cells. CKK-8 experiments, wound healing assays, and Transwell experiments indicated that knocking down JARID2 had a negative impact on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of OSCC cells. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that the expression of JARID2 in OSCC is closely associated with patient gene co-expression, gene function enrichment, immune infiltration, and drug sensitivity.
Conclusion:
Our study indicates that JARID2 is a novel prognostic biomarker and potential therapeutic target for OSCC.
