Background
Methods
Determination of expression profiles of BTNs genes
Survival analysis
Estimation of infiltration level of immune cell type and correlation with BTNL9
Predicting binding of miRNA and lncRNA to BTNL9
Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of BTNL9 high and low expression groups
Estimating drug response for LUAD
Construction and evaluation of nomogram
Statistical analysis
Results
The high expression level of BTNL9 was associated with favorable survival of LUAD
Pan- cancer gene expression and prognostic value of BTNL9
Upstream and downstream regulatory network of BTNL9
Low expression of BTNL9 significantly enriches proteasome and increases cancer malignancy
Correlation between BTNL9 and infiltrating immune cell markers
