Abstract SLAMF9, a member of the conserved lymphocyte activation molecules family (SLAMF), has been less investigated compared to other SLAMs, especially concerning its implications across various cancer types. In our systematic pan-cancer investigation, we observed elevated SLAMF9 expression in various tumor tissues, which was correlated with reduced patient survival across most malignancies. Correlation analyses further revealed significant associations between SLAMF9 expression and immune cell infiltrates, immune checkpoint inhibitors, tumor mutation load, microsatellite instability, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) scores. Cell-based assays demonstrated that SLAMF9 knockdown attenuated the proliferative, motile, and invasive capacities of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. In a nude mouse xenograft model, suppression of SLAMF9 expression substantially inhibited tumor growth. These findings highlight the potential of SLAMF9 as a prognostic and therapeutic biomarker across tumors, with notable implications for CRC cell proliferation and migration. |
