Abstract

Abstract: Objective: The objective of the study was to investigate the expression of LAMTOR3 in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) and its clinical significance. Methods: The expression of LAMTOR3 in KIRC and its relationship with clinical features were analyzed using the UALCAN online database. The results were verified using KIRC gene chip data and clinical specimens. The prognosis of KIRC patients was analyzed with the GEPIA2 database. GO, KEGG, and GSEA analyses were conducted to analyze the possible molecular mechanism of LAMTOR3 in KIRC. Immunohistochemical (IHC) and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining were used for histopathological detection. Results: UALCAN database analysis showed that LAMTOR3 expression in KIRC was significantly lower than in normal kidney tissues and correlated with the clinical stage, pathological grade, and tumor genotype ( p < .05). GSE53757 dataset analysis consistently showed that the expression of LAMTOR3 in KIRC was significantly lower than in normal kidney tissues ( p < .01). GEPIA2 database analysis indicated that patients with low LAMTOR3 expression had poor overall and disease‐free survival rates. GSEA analysis suggested that LAMTOR3 positively regulated the citrate cycle and drug metabolism cytochrome P450 and negatively regulated folate biosynthesis and olfactory transduction. The expression of LAMTOR3 in KIRC was also significantly correlated with immune cell infiltration. Finally, IHC showed that LAMTOR3 expression in the KIRC tissues was lower than in the adjacent normal tissues. Conclusion: LAMTOR3 expression is significantly lower in KIRC. LAMTOR3 may be a potential marker for KIRC diagnosis and therapy. Abstract : LAMTOR3 protein was detected in human KIRC tissues using immunohistochemistry assay.
