CCR8 as a Therapeutic Novel Target: Omics-Integrated Comprehensive Analysis for Systematically Prioritizing Indications
- Abstract
- Target identification is a crucial process in drug development, aiming to identify key proteins, genes, and signal pathways involved in disease progression and their relevance in potential therapeutic interventions. While C-C chemokine receptor 8 (CCR8) has been investigated as a candidate anti-cancer target, comprehensive multi-omics analyses across various indications are limited. In this study, we conducted an extensive bioinformatics analysis integrating genomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics data to establish CCR8 as a promising anti-cancer drug target. Our approach encompassed data collection from diverse knowledge resources, gene function analysis, differential gene expression profiling, immune cell infiltration assessment, and strategic prioritization of target indications. Our findings revealed a strong correlation between CCR8 and specific cancers, notably Breast Invasive Carcinoma (BRCA), Colon Adenocarcinoma (COAD), Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSC), Rectum Adenocarcinoma (READ), Stomach Adenocarcinoma (STAD), and Thyroid Carcinoma (THCA). This research advances our understanding of CCR8 as a potential target for anti-cancer drug development, bridging the gap between molecular insights and creating the opportunities of personalized treatment for solid tumors. Key words: Anti-cancer; Target identification; Comprehensive analysis; Multi-omics analysis; Drug-target; C-C chemokine receptor 8 (CCR8), priority indication;
