Background: Secreted modular calcium-binding protein 1 (SMOC1) belongs to a family of matricellular proteins; it was involved in embryo development, endothelial cell proliferation, angiogenesis, integrin–matrix interactions, cell adhesion, and regulation of glucose metabolism. Previous studies showed that the expression of SMOC1 was increased in some tumors. However, the prognostic value and the biological function of SMOC1 in tumor remain unclear.Methods: In this study, we explored the expression profile and prognostic value of SMOC1 in pan-cancers, especially glioma, via multiple databases, including Oncomine, Gene Expression Profiling Interactive 2, PrognoScan, Kaplan–Meier plotter, and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database. Furthermore, LinkedOmics was used to identify the genes coexpressed with SMOC1 and to perform Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways and Gene Ontology analysis in low-grade glioma (LGG). Also, the Cancer Single-Cell State Atlas database was used to evaluate the correlation between SMOC1 expression and functional state activities in glioma cells. In addition, the Tumor Immune Estimation Resource and TISIDB databases were used to evaluate the correlations between SMOC1 expression and tumor-infiltrating immune cells in the tumor microenvironment.Results: Compared with normal brain tissues, the expression of SMOC1 was increased in LGG tissues. The higher expression of SMOC1 was significantly correlated with better survival of LGG patients. Additionally, functional analyses showed that the SMOC1 coexpressed genes were inhibited in processes such as response to type I interferon and interferon-gamma, lymphocyte-mediated immunity, leukocyte migration, adaptive immune response, neutrophil-mediated immunity, T cell activation, and pathways including EMC–receptor interaction, Th17 cell differentiation, and leukocyte trans-endothelial migration in LGG. Moreover, the expression of SMOC1 was correlated with stemness, hypoxia, EMT, and metastasis of glioma cells. Additionally, the expression of SMOC1 expression was negatively correlated with levels of infiltrating B cells, CD8+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, macrophages, neutrophils and dendritic cells, and gene markers of most immune cells in LGG.Conclusion: Our results suggest that SMOC1 could be a potential biomarker to determine prognosis and might play a specific role in the tumor microenvironment of glioma, thereby influencing the development and progression of glioma. These findings provide some new insights for further investigation.

TUBA1C, a microtubule component, contributes to the development of several cancers. Our purpose was to study the expression of TUBA1C, its potential prognostic value, and its effects on the infiltration of immune cells of low-grade glioma (LGG). Through applying multiple bioinformatics analyses, we extracted and analyzed datasets from TCGA, TIMER, GTEx, GEPIA, and HPA to investigate the potential oncogenic mechanisms of TUBA1C, including the correlation between TUBA1C and prognosis, immune-checkpoints, tumor microenvironment (TME), and infiltration of immune cells in LGG. GO functional annotations and KEGG pathway analyses were further applied to investigate the potential action of TUBA1C in LGG. We revealed that the mRNA levels of TUBA1C were increased in LGG tumor tissues than in normal tissues. Additionally, TUBA1C was up-regulated in the grade III of LGG than in grade II. Moreover, we found that TUBA1C may be an independent prognostic factor of LGG, and high TUBA1C expression correlated to a poor prognosis of LGG. TUBA1C expression was positively associated with the infiltration of B cells, CD8 T+ cells, CD4+ T cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils. TUBA1C was also verified to be co-expressed with immune-related genes and immune-checkpoints. GO and KEGG pathway analyses indicated that TUBA1C may potentially regulate the pathogenesis of LGG through immune-related pathways, including chemokine pathway; JAK-STAT pathway; natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity; T cell receptor pathway; leukocyte migration; negative regulation of immune system process; regulation of lymphocyte activation; T cell activation and other pathways. In conclusion, TUBA1C expression is increased in LGG and high TUAB1C expression is related to a poor prognosis. TUBA1C may influence tumor development by regulating the tumor-infiltrating cells in the TME. TUBA1C may be a potential target for immunotherapy.

Abstract Introduction: S100 Calcium Binding Protein A12 (S100A12) is a member of the S100 protein family and is widely expressed in neutrophil and low expressed in lymphocytes and monocyte. However, the role of S100A12 in glioma has not yet been identified. Methods: In the present study, we carried out immunohistochemical investigation of S100A12 in 81 glioma tissues to determine the expression of s100A12 in glioma cells, and evaluate the clinical significance of S100A12 in glioma patients. Futher we knockdown the S100A12 by ShRNA, and evaluated cell proliferation, cell migration and cell apoptosis by MTT,clony formation assay, transwell assay ,flow cytometry assa and westernblot. Results: We found that S100A12 was upregulated in tissues of glioma patients and the expression was correlated to WHO stage and tumor size. Further, we found that knockdown S100A12 inhibits the proliferation, migration and invasion of glioma cells through regulating cell apoptosis and EMT. Conclusions: These findings demonstrated a novel function for S100A12 in glioma progression and suggested that S100A12 may be served as a new marker in the tumorigenesis and progression of glioma.
