However, a comprehensive pan-cancer analysis to fully investigate this relationship is lacking. Herein, public platforms with large-scale genomics, including The Cancer Genome Atlas, Gene Expression Omnibus dataset, and the Human Protein Atlas were explored to investigate the prognostic and immunological roles of MECOM across certain cancer types. Our findings revealed differential expression of MECOM in various cancer types, indicating its potential to predict diverse clinical outcomes, such as overall survival time and disease-free survival time in patients with various malignancies. Additionally, we observed an association between the mutation burden in MECOM in various cancers and patient survival. Furthermore, the mechanism of MECOM-mediated oncogenesis was tentatively explored by immune infiltration analysis. This study provided a relatively comprehensive overview of the prognostic and immunological roles of MECOMin multiple cancers.  \nKeywords MECOM · Cancer · Prognosis · Survival · Comprehensive analysis  \n1 Introduction  \nIt is widely acknowledged that there is considerable heterogeneity in the tumorigenesis and development of diverse cancers [1, 2]. Understanding the role of a single gene in the complex processes through pan-cancer analysis is becoming increasingly feasible with the emergence of public platforms featuring large-scale genomics databases, such asThe Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) [3, 4] .  \nMECOM (MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus) gene, also known as PRDM3 (positive regulatory domain zinc finger protein 3), was originally identified as a retroviral integration site in myeloid neoplasms and is believed to possess a relatively conserved developmental function in embryogenesis [5]. In tumors, MECOM is thought to be associated with the maintenance of acinar cell homeostasis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by regulating the response of acinar cells to inflammation and oncogenic KRAS activation [6]. Moreover, MECOM expression has been found to be amplified in ovarian cancers, sustaining tumor growth by interacting with PAX8 [7] . In nasopharyngeal carcinoma, MECOM was observed  \nYingqiang Lu and Jing Quan have contributed equally to this study.  \nSupplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at [https://doi.org/10.1007/s12672-024-](https://doi.org/10.1007/s12672-024-)[ ](https://doi.org/10.1007/s12672-024-)[01599-5](01599-5.)[.](01599-5.)  \n* Banggao Huang, [sunson33@126.com |](sunson33@126.com |1Department of Urology)[1](sunson33@126.com |1Department of Urology)[Department of Urology](sunson33@126.com |1Department of Urology), Urology and Nephrology Center, Cancer Center, Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital, Affiliated People’s Hospital, Hangzhou Medical College, 158 Shangtang Road, Hangzhou 310014, Zhejiang, China.  \nDiscover Oncology  \n(2024) 15:694  \n| [https://doi.org/10.1007/s12672-024-01599-5](https://doi.org/10.1007/s12672-024-01599-5)  \nto contribute to an epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype in tumor cells, thereby enhancing their proliferation and invasive capabilities [8] . Although recent studies on the role of MECOM in several cancers indicated its potential significance in cancer tumorigenesis and development [6–8], pan-cancer evidence regarding its contribution to various cancer types is currently lacking.  \nWe integrated the data available in TCGA and GEO databases to ascertain the expression profile of MECOM across various cancer types, with the objective of conducting a pan-cancer analysis of this gene.
