Elevated expression of tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 12A (TNFRSF12A) expression has been observed in certain types of cancer. This project aims to investigate the function of TNFRSF12A in tumors and the underlying mechanisms.\u003Cbr>Materials and Methods Various websites were utilized for conducting the bioinformatics analysis. Tumor cell lines with stable knockdown or overexpression ofTNFRSF12A were established for cell phenotyping experiments and subcutaneous tumorigenesis in BALB/c mice. RNA-seq was employed to investigate the mechanism of TNFRSF12A.\u003Cbr>Results TNFRSF12A was upregulated in the majority of cancers and associated with a poor prognosis. Knockdown TNFRSF12A hindered the colorectal cancer progression, while overexpression facilitated malignancy both in vitro and in vivo. TNFRSF12A overexpression led to increased nuclear factor кB (NF-κB) signaling and significant upregulation of baculoviral IAP repeat containing 3 (BIRC3), a transcription target of the NF-κB member RELA, and it was experimentally confirmed to be a critical downstream factor of TNFRSF12A. Therefore, we speculated the existence of a TNFRSF12A/RELA/BIRC3 regulatory axis in colorectal cancer.\u003Cbr>Conclusion TNFRSF12A is upregulated in various cancer types and associated with a poor prognosis. In colorectal cancer, elevated TNFRSF12A expression promotes tumor growth, potentially through the TNFRSF12A/RELA/BIRC3 regulatory axis.\u003Cbr>Key words TNFRSF12A, Computational biology, Neoplasms, Colorectal neoplasms, NF-κB |  |\n| Introduction | Protein Atlas (HPA) [5], along with their derived secondary analysis websites, have significantly enhanced global cancer |\n| Cancer has become a major public health issue, with the | research effort. |\n| National Cancer Center of China (NCC) reporting approxi- | Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 12A |\n| mately 4,824,700 new cancer cases and 2,574,200 new can- | (TNFRSF12A), also known as Fn14, belongs to the tumor |\n| cer-related deaths in China in 2022 [1] .
