Zusammenfassung:NCAPG2 has been reported to be associated with tumorigenesis in various types of cancer. However, data on the pathological mechanisms of NCAPG2 in pan-cancers remain lacking. Therefore, the study aimed to comprehensively elucidate the immune characteristics and prognostic of NCAPG2 in tumor microenvironments (TMEs). NCAPG2 was overexpressed in many tumor types, and this overexpression is related to poor clinical stages and prognosis. Furthermore, elevated NCAPG2 expression was strongly associated with TMEs. Moreover, gene set enrichment analysis was performed to investigate the pathways associated with NCAPG2, revealing its involvement in several immune-related pathways. Finally, we predicted the immunotherapeutic value and sensitivity to drugs based on NCAPG2 expression. Our study revealed that NCAPG2 could be utilized as an immune-related biomarker for both diagnosing and predicting the prognosis of multiple cancer types. Therefore, our findings suggest that targeting NCAPG2 in TMEs could be a promising therapeutic strategy.
