Abstract

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is a common digestive cancer, and its prognosis is poor. Myosin 1E (MYO1E) is a class I myosin family member whose expression and function have not been reported in PAAD. In the present study, bioinformatics analysis was used to explore the expression levels of MYO1E in PAAD and its prognostic value, and the immunological role of MYO1E in PAAD was analyzed. The study revealed that a variety of malignancies have substantially increased MYO1E expression. Further investigation demonstrated that PAAD tissues exhibited greater levels of MYO1E mRNA and protein expression than normal tissues. High MYO1E expression is associated with poor prognosis in patients with PAAD. MYO1E expression was also associated with pathological stage in patients with PAAD. Functional enrichment analysis demonstrated that MYO1E was linked to multiple tumor‑related mechanisms in PAAD. The pancreatic adenocarcinoma tumor microenvironment (TME) was analyzed and it was revealed that MYO1E expression was positively associated with tumor immune cell infiltration. In addition, MYO1E was closely associated with some tumor chemokines/receptors and immune checkpoints. In vitro experiments revealed that the suppression of MYO1E expression could inhibit pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell proliferation, invasion and migration. Through preliminary analysis, the present study evaluated the potential function of MYO1E in PAAD and its function in TME, and MYO1E may become a potential biomarker for PAAD.
