Abstract

Some studies have suggested heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (HNRNPA2B1) to be a promoter in cancer development. Nonetheless, no detailed pan-cancer investigation has been reported. Thus, this study explored the possible oncogenic role of HNRNPA2B1, such as its expression levels, gene alteration, protein–protein interaction network, immune infiltration, and prognostic value in different cancer types using The Cancer Genome Atlas web platform. Many types of cancer exhibit HNRNPA2B1 overexpression, which is notably associated with poor prognosis. We also found that HNRNPA2B1 with different methylation levels causes a varied prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). It is noteworthy that HNRNPA2B1 levels are connected with cancer-associated fibroblasts in cancers, such as adrenocortical carcinoma, LUAD, and stomach adenocarcinoma. In addition, HNRNPA2B1 participates in the spliceosome- and cell cycle-associated pathways. Finally, HNRNPA2B1 is highly valued in the diagnosis of LUAD, lung squamous cell carcinoma, breast invasive carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma, and liver hepatocellular carcinoma. This systematic study highlighted the role of HNRNPA2B1 in pan-cancer progression.
