ABSTRACT
Anchoring filament protein ladinin-1 (LAD1) codes for an anchor filament protein in the basement membrane. Here, we have aimed to determine its potential role in LUAD. According to the comprehensive analyses conducted in this study, we studied the expression, prognostic significance, function, methylation, copy number variations, and the immune cell infiltration of LAD1 in LUAD. A higher level of LAD1 gene expression was observed in the LUAD tumor tissues compared to the normal lung tissues (p < 0.001). Furthermore, the multivariate analysis indicated that a higher LAD1 gene expression level was the independent prognostic factor. Additionally, the DNA methylation level of the LAD1 was inversely linked to its expression (p < 0.001). We noted that the patients affected due to LAD1 hypomethylation showed a very low overall survival rate compared to the patients with a higher LAD1 methylation score (p < 0.05). Moreover, the results of the immunity analysis indicated that the LAD1 expression might be inversely linked to the immune cell infiltration degree, expression of the infiltrated immune cells, and the PD-L1 levels. Lastly, we supplemented some verification to increase the rigor of the study. The results suggested that high expression of LAD1 may be related to cold tumors. Hence, this indirectly reflects that the immunotherapy effect of LUAD patients with high LAD1 expression might be worse. Based on the role played by the LAD1 in the tumor immune microenvironment, it can be considered a potential biomarker for predicting the immunotherapy response to LUAD.
