Gliomas originating in the neuroepithelium account for about 80% of brain malignancies and are the most common cancer of the central nervous system. Clinical management of gliomas remains challenging despite significant advances in comprehensive therapies, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery. The ITGB4 (Integrin subunit beta 4) gene encodes a receptor for laminins and its upregulation in tumor tissues is associated with poor prognosis. However, its role in glioma is not well understood. First, we performed a pan cancer analysis of ITGB4 expression in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset. Survival analysis was done on Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) and TCGA. Immunohistochemistry was then used to validate the expression and role of ITGB4 in glioma. We finally analyzed the possible mechanism by immune infiltration and single-cell sequencing analysis. Here, we found that ITGB4 is upregulated in glioma and accurately predicts the prognosis of lower grade glioma (LGG). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that ITGB4 is a risk factor for LGG. Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed that ITGB4 accurately predicts LGG prognosis. Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) cluster analysis showed that ITGB4 was closely related to immune related genes. Immune cell infiltration and single cell sequencing analyses indicated that ITGB4 may be closely related to the microenvironment of gliomas, especially tumor-associated fibroblasts. ITGB4 is a promising diagnostic and therapeutic factor in LGG patients.© 2024. The Author(s).
