Article Abstract

Background: Research on the function of HGH1 in breast cancer remains lacking.

Methods: TCGAand GEO (GSE45827) datasets investigated discrepancies in HGH1 expression in BC. An aggregate of 106 clinical samples were gathered through immunohistochemistry, KM curves were drawn for prognostic analysis, and the function of HGH1 of BC was predicted. Finally, the effects of HGH1 knockdown on MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 BC cells were verified via CCK8, invasion, wound healing and colony formation assays.

Results: HGH1 is highly expressed in BC and is linked to unfavorable prognosis. HGH1 overexpression is connected to keratinization and the cell cycle and is closely related to ER and PR expression and tumor stage in BC patients. Knocking down HGH1 in BC cells inhibited the viability, invasion and migration.

Conclusion: Knockdown of HGH1 in breast cancer cell lines can inhibit the viability, invasion and migration of tumor cells.

Introduction: Previous studies have shown that the HGH1 gene is associated with poor prognosis in a variety of cancers, but its specific function and molecular mechanism in the pathological process of breast cancer remain unclear.

Methods: The relationship between expression of HGH1 and overall survival in BC patients was analyzed. Enrichment analysis of HGH1-related signaling pathways and immune infiltration was performed.

Background: Breast cancer (BRCA) remains to be among the main causes of cancer-associated mortality in women globally. HGH1 homolog (HGH1) has been reported to be associated with tumor immunity. However, the function of HGH1 in BRCA remains unclear.

Article Synopsis
  • Scientists studied a protein called NSUN2 that is important for adding a chemical tag (mC) to RNA, which is linked to breast cancer development.
  • They discovered that NSUN2 affects a gene called HGH1, which helps cancer grow, by changing the way the gene works and interacts with proteins.
  • Their research showed that blocking NSUN2 can slow down breast cancer growth, highlighting its role in this disease.
