Thioredoxin domain-containing 12 (TXNDC12) has been shown to play an important role in various malignant tumors. Therefore, we explored the clinicopathological characteristics of TXNDC12 in glioma to bring to light new ideas in its treatment.Methods: We obtained data packages related to TXNDC12 expression status in gliomas from public databases. We analyzed glioma TXNDC12 expression and patient survival status and validated the above results using glioma specimens from our institution. Next, we analyzed the value of TXNDC12 in combination with 1p19q and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) on the prognosis of glioma by regression model and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Finally, we explored the function of related genes by GO analysis and KEGG analysis.Results: Compared with normal brain tissue, the expression of TXNDC12 in glioma cells, regarding both mRNA and protein levels, was significantly upregulated. The survival time of patients with high-expression of TXNDC12 in glioma cells was shortened. In the World Health Organization pathological classification, IDH status, 1p19q status, and IDH combined with 1p19q subgroups, the expression of TXNDC12 increased with the deterioration of the above indicators. Tumor local immune analysis showed that the immune cell infiltration in TXNDC12 high-expressing glioma tissue increased, the tumor purity was reduced. GO and KEGG analyses indicated that TXNDC12 may be involved in the malignant prognosis of glioma through glycosylation and antigen processing and presentation.Conclusion: We showed that TXNDC12 is significantly highly expressed in gliomas. This high expression predicts the poor prognosis of glioma patients and is related to the gliomas’ local immune microenvironment. As a tumor-related gene, TXNDC12 may be used as a new prognostic judgment molecule.
