Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n IGFLR1 is emerging as a promising biomarker and therapeutic target in cancer through its dual role in modulating tumor‐intrinsic properties and the tumor immune microenvironment. In studies of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), IGFLR1 was found to be significantly upregulated in tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissue, with elevated expression correlating with progressive disease, poorer overall survival, and enhanced tumor‐infiltrating immune cell profiles. These findings indicate that IGFLR1 may contribute to tumor aggressiveness and serve as a valuable prognostic indicator."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n In parallel, transcriptomic analyses of tumor-infiltrating T cells using single-cell RNA sequencing have highlighted IGFLR1 as an important gene whose expression may influence T cell functionality within the tumor milieu.
