The study showed that CLEC3B expression was decreased in HCC and correlated with poor prognosis and immune cell infiltration in tumors, suggesting a potential role of CLEC3B in modulating tumor immunity through immune cell infiltration adjustment.
C-Type Lectin Domain Family 3 Member B (CLEC3B) encodes proteins associated with tumor invasion and metastasis. However, the interrelation between CLEC3B gene expression, tumor immunity, and prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unclear. This study was conducted to investigate the prognostic potential of CLEC3B and its association with tumor tissue infiltration markers. CLEC3B expression was examined using the TIMER and Oncomine databases, with its prognostic potential assessed using the GEPIA and Kaplan-Meier plotter databases. The relationship between CLEC3B and tumor immune cell infiltration biomarkers was analyzed using TIMER. Here, we revealed that CLEC3B expression was decreased in HCC and was correlated with a poor survival rate in patients with HCC. Additionally, the expression of CLEC3B was negatively correlated with differential immune cell infiltration and various immune biomarkers. These results indicate a potential mechanism by which the expression of CLEC3B might adjust tumor immunity by modulating the infiltration of HCC immune cells. Our study demonstrated that CLEC3B could be a potential prognostic biomarker and might be involved in tumor immune cell infiltration in HCC.
