Abstract

This study explored the promoting effect of oxidative stress-induced growth inhibitor family member 2(OSGIN2) on gastric Cancer (GC) through public databases and in vitro experiments. The potential relationship between OSGIN2 expression, prognosis, functional enrichment of associated differential genes, immune infiltration, and mutational information in gastric Cancer were comprehensively investigated using bioinformatics analysis. OSGIN2 was knocked down using small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection for subsequent cell function testing. The results showed that gastric carcinoma cells and tissues contained high levels of OSGIN2, which was associated with a poor prognosis for GC patients. It was important in the cell cycle, Autophagy, etc., and was related to a variety of tumor-related signal pathways. Knockdown of OSGIN2 inhibited tumor cell proliferation and contributed to cell cycle arrest. It was also correlated with tumor immune infiltrating cells (TILs), affecting antitumor immune function. Our analysis highlights that OSING2, as a new biomarker, has diagnostic and prognostic value in gastric Cancer and is a potentially effective target in GC treatment.
