Ribosomal protein S6 kinase 2 (RPS6KB2) is a potential immunotherapeutic target for cancer that upregulates proinflammatory cytokines
Background Cancer is still a leading cause of mortality. Over the years, cancer therapy has undergone significant advances driven by advancements in science and technology. A promising area of drug discovery in this field involves the development of therapeutic targets for cancer treatment. The urgent need to identify new pharmacological targets arises from the impact of tumor resistance on the effectiveness of current medications. Specifically, the RPS6KB2 gene on chromosome 11 has been implicated in cell cycle regulation and exhibits higher expression levels in tumor tissue. Given this association, there is a potential for this gene to serve as a target for cancer treatment. Methods We conducted an analysis using the GTEx, TCGA, and CCLE databases to explore the relationship between RPS6KB2 and immune infiltration, the tumor microenvironment (TME), microsatellite instability (MSI), and more. Cell proliferation was assessed using EDU detection, while cell invasion and migration were evaluated via wound healing and Transwell assays. Additionally, western blot analysis was employed to measure expression of Bax, Bcl-2, MMP2, MMP9, PCNA, and proinflammatory factors. Results Through data analysis and molecular biology methods, our study carefully examined the potential role of RPS6KB2 in cancer therapy. The data revealed that RPS6KB2 is aberrantly expressed in most cancers and is associated with poor prognosis. Further analysis indicated its involvement in cancer cell apoptosis and migration, as well as its role in cancer immune processes. We validated the significance of RPS6KB2 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), highlighting its capacity to upregulate proinflammatory cytokines. Conclusion Our research indicates that RPS6KB2 is a prognostic biomarker associated with immune infiltration in cancer that can affect antitumor immunity by increasing secretion of proinflammatory factors, providing a potential drug target for cancer treatment..
