Abstract:
The ribophorin family, including RPN1, has been associated with tumor progression, but its specific role in pan-cancer dynamics remains unclear. Using data from TCGA, GTEx, and Ualcan databases, we investigated the relationship of RPN1 with prognosis, genomic alterations, and epigenetic modifications across various cancers. Differential analysis revealed elevated RPN1 expression in multiple cancer types, indicating a potential prognostic value. Amplification was the predominant mutation type of RPN1 in pan-cancer, with notable correlations with DNA methylation and copy number variation. Gene set variation analysis identified RPN1's involvement in cancer development, immunity, and metabolism. Additionally, RPN1 expression correlated with the tumor microenvironment, immune response factors, and response to anti-tumor therapies. Functional validation in triple-negative breast cancer, glioblastoma, and bladder cancer cell lines demonstrated the role of RPN1 in tumor cell proliferation and migration. Our findings highlight RPN1 as a potential biomarker for cancer diagnosis and treatment response in pan-cancer therapy.
