Comprehensive Analysis Of The Expression Characteristics Of The Enhancer Of The Zeste Homolog 2 Gene In Pan-Cancer

Although more and more studies have shown that EZH2 was closely related to human cancer, no pan-cancer analysis is available. Therefore, we summarized and analyzed the potential carcinogenic effect of EZH2 for the first time based on TCGA (cancer genome map) datasets. EZH2 is expressed highly in most tumors and there is a significant correlation between the EZH2 expression and the prognosis of patients. We observed the increased phosphorylation levels of T487 in breast cancer, colon cancer, UCEC, and LUAD. The expression of EZH2 was associated with the CD8+, tregs, macrophage, and cancer-associated fibroblast infiltration in some tumors. In addition, the cell cycle and cellular biology were involved in the functional mechanisms of EZH2. Our study summarized and analyzed the carcinogenic effect of EZH2 in different tumors comprehensively and provided a theoretical basis for targeting EZH2 therapy.
