Abstract
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is one of the most hazardous cancers in digestive system, and the prognosis is notoriously bad. Increasing evidences indicate that Laminin Subunit Gamma 2 (LAMC2) is critical for the initiation and the growth of various sorts of human cancers. However, the involved molecular pathways of LAMC2 in PAAD are still poorly understood. In this study, prediction programs and databases were employed to conduct pan-cancer analysis. Multiple variations of human malignancies showed increased LAMC2 expression, which was positively correlated to a poor prognosis in PAAD. Moreover, LAMC2 was positively correlated with the biomarkers of immune cells including CD19, CD163, and NOS2 in PAAD. The lncRNA C5orf66 /PTPRG-AS1- miR-128-3p -LAMC2 axis was identified to be a potential upstream regulatory pathway of LAMC2 in PAAD. Furthermore, LAMC2 upregulation in PAAD was associated with PD-L1 expression, indicating promoting carcinoma immune cell infiltration. Our study elucidated prognostic and immunological values of LAMC2 in PAAD, providing a promise target for PAAD treatment.
