Tooth development is regulated by numerous genes and signaling pathways. Some studies suggest that mutations in these genes may be associated with several cancer types. However, the tooth agenesis mutated genes role in the prognosis and their clinical therapeutic potentials in pan-cancer have not been elaborately explored. Moreover, the intrinsic correlation between tooth agenesis and cancers also needs to be further verified. We preliminarily analyzed expression levels and prognostic values of causative genes of tooth agenesis, and explored the correlation between the expression of tooth agenesis mutated genes and TME, Stemness score, clinical characteristic, immune subtype, and drug sensitivity in pan-cancer, which based on updated public databases and integrated some bioinformatics analysis methods. In addition, we conducted the enrichment analysis of tooth agenesis mutant genes from KOBAS database. We observed that TA mutant genes had significant gene expression differences in multiple cancer types compared with normal tissues. The expression of causative genes of TA is associated with the prognosis in several cancers from different databases. For example, AXIN2 and MSX1 were correlated to the overall survival (OS) of uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma. PAX9 and TP63 were related to OS of lung squamous cell carcinoma. And TP63 was associated with OS in breast invasive carcinoma and pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Furthermore, the expression of TA mutant genes also has a significant correlation with stromal and immune scores, and RNA stemness score and DNA stemness score in pan-cancer. Besides, we observed that all causative genes of TA were significantly correlated with immune subtypes. Moreover, KEGG pathway analysis showed that causative genes of TA were associated with the development and progression of breast cancer, basal cell carcinoma, gastric cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Finally, AXIN2 expression has a significantly positive or negative correlation with drug sensitivity. Our study indicates the great potential of TA mutant genes as biomarkers for prognosis and provides valuable strategies for further investigation of TA mutant genes as potential therapeutic targets in cancers. Our study can further verify that there may be an intrinsic correlation between tooth agenesis and the occurrence of multiple cancers.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
