The prognostic value and immunological role of MVP in pan-cancer study.

Major Vault Protein (MVP) has emerged as a potential prognostic and immunological biomarker in various cancer types. This pan-cancer study aimed to investigate expression of MVP and its correlation with clinical outcomes and immune infiltration across diverse cancer types. We conducted an analysis of extensive transcriptomic and clinical data from publicly available databases. Our findings unveiled a significant association between MVP expression and cancer progression, with higher expression levels predicting poorer overall survival in multiple cancer types. Importantly, MVP expression demonstrated a close relationship with immune infiltration in the tumor microenvironment, showing that higher expression levels were associated with increased immune cell infiltration. We further validated expression of MVP and function in cancer cell lines A549 and AGS. These compelling results suggest that MVP holds promise as a valuable biomarker for prognostic assessment and the development of immunotherapeutic strategies across various cancer types. Consequently, targeting MVP may offer a compelling therapeutic approach in the treatment of human cancers.
