Abstract
Introduction: Overexpression of tribbles homolog 3 (TRIB3) has been reported in various cancers, yet its clinical significance remains contentious. This study aims to elucidate the association between TRIB3 overexpression and the progression and prognosis of solid tumors.
Methods: A comprehensive analysis was conducted using data from published studies and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) up to May 2023. We evaluated the impact of high TRIB3 expression on tumor malignancy and survival outcomes across different cancer types.
Results: Seventeen studies met the inclusion criteria. Our findings revealed that TRIB3 overexpression is significantly associated with increased distant metastasis (OR = 4.01, 95% CI: 2.36-6.74, p < 0.001) and advanced histological stage (OR = 2.68, 95% CI: 1.50-4.78, p < 0.001). Additionally, high TRIB3 expression significantly elevated the risk of reduced overall survival (OS) in cancer patients (HR = 1.52, 95% CI: 1.05-2.20, p < 0.001), indicating a poor prognosis. Analyses of TCGA data among various prognostic indicators corroborated these findings.
Conclusions: TRIB3 overexpression is significantly linked to malignant progression and unfavorable prognosis in diverse solid tumors. These results suggest that TRIB3 holds promise as a biomarker and therapeutic target in human cancers.
tribles同源物3 (TRIB3)的过表达已在多种癌症中报道,但其临床意义仍有争议。本研究旨在阐明TRIB3过表达与实体瘤进展及预后的关系。方法:对截至2023年5月的已发表研究和癌症基因组图谱(TCGA)数据进行综合分析。我们评估了高TRIB3表达对不同癌症类型的肿瘤恶性和生存结果的影响。结果:17项研究符合纳入标准。我们的研究结果显示,TRIB3过表达与远处转移增加显著相关(OR = 4.01, 95% CI: 2.36-6.74, p p p p)。结论:TRIB3过表达与多种实体瘤的恶性进展和不良预后显著相关。这些结果表明,TRIB3有望成为人类癌症的生物标志物和治疗靶点。
