Popis: Abstract Background Motile Sperm Domain-Containing Protein 1 (MOSPD1) has been implicated in breast cancer (BC) pathophysiology, but its exact role remains unclear. This study aimed to assess MOSPD1 expression levels in BC versus normal tissues and investigate its diagnostic potential. Methods MOSPD1 expression was analyzed in BC and normal tissues, with Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis for diagnostic evaluation. Validation was performed using immunohistochemistry. Functional studies included tumor growth assays, MOSPD1 suppression and overexpression experiments, and testing BC cell responses to anti-PD-L1 therapy. Results MOSPD1 expression was significantly higher in BC samples than normal tissues, correlating with poor clinical outcomes in BC patients. MOSPD1 suppression inhibited tumor growth, while overexpression accelerated it. Silencing MOSPD1 enhanced BC cell sensitivity to anti-PD-L1 therapy and decreased Th2 cell activity. In vivo experiments supported these findings, showing the impact of MOSPD1 on tumor growth and response to therapy. Conclusions Elevated MOSPD1 levels in BC suggest its potential as a biomarker for adverse outcomes. Targeting MOSPD1, particularly with anti-PD-L1 therapy, may effectively inhibit BC tumor growth and modulate immune responses. This study emphasizes the significance of MOSPD1 in BC pathophysiology and highlights its promise as a therapeutic target.
