Abstract
Background: FAM110B belongs to the family that has a 110 sequence similarity (FAM110) and is located in the centrosome and mitotic spindle. FAM110B has been linked to tumor cell growth in earlier research. Uncertainty exists regarding FAM110B's function within the tumor microenvironment is unclear as well as pan-cancer. Methods: In order to assess the variation in FAM110B expression within normal and pan-cancer tissues, we combined the TCGA and GTEx databases. The cBioPortal database and the GSCALite platform were used to examine the variation in genome and methylation alteration of FAM110B. Cox regression, Kaplan-Meier, and SangerBox were employed to examine the clinical features and prognosis of FAM110B and pan-cancer. The purpose of the correlational research was to investigate the associations within immunerelated genes, tumor mutation burden, microsatellite instability, immune-related genes, and immunological checkpoints and FAM110B expression. ESTIMATE, EPIC, QUANTISEQ, and MCPCOUNTER methods were used to calculate the interaction among FAM110B expression as well as the tumor immune microenvironment. The immunoinfiltration and function of FAM110B were analyzed by single-cell databases (TISCH and CancerSEA). Finally, we evaluated the sensitivity of FAM110B to small-molecule medications through GDSC and CTRP databases. Results: The transcription and protein expression of FAM110B varies significantly throughout cancer types, and this has predictive value for the prognosis of some tumors; including brain lower grade glioma (LGG), stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), etc. In the tumor microenvironment, the expression level of FAM110B was associated with immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint immune regulatory genes, tumor mutational burden, and microsatellite fragility to a certain extent. Conclusion: This work investigates the possibility of utility of FAM110B as a marker to forecast pan-cancer immunotherapy response, providing a theoretical basis for cancer therapy.
