Abstract

Cancer is associated with the highest mortality rate globally. While life-saving screening and treatments exist, better awareness is needed. RNF187, an E3 ligase regulating biological processes, belongs to the RING domain-containing E3 ligase family. RNF187 may serve as an oncogene due to abnormal expression in tumors. However, its association with immune infiltration and prognosis across various cancers remains unclear. We searched several databases including TCGA, GTE x, CCLE, TIMER, and GSEA. R software was used to evaluate RNF187 differential expression, survival, pathology stage, DNA methylation, tumor mutational burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), gene co-expression analysis, mismatch repairs (MMRs), tumor microenvironment (TME), and immune cell infiltration. Clinicopathological data were collected, and immunohistochemistry was used to verify RNF187 expression in tumor tissues. RNF187 expression was up-regulated in various cancers compared to that in normal tissues and associated with poor patient outcomes. Dysregulation of RNF187 expression in multiple cancer types was strongly correlated with DNA methylation, MMR, MSI, and TMB. RNF187 could interact with different immune cells in cancers. Biomarkers associated with RNF187 may be helpful for prognosis and immunology in treating pan-cancer patients.
