Glioma is one of the most common malignant brain tumors. It has a high rate of progression and a poor prognosis, and effective biomarkers still need to be identified. The solute carrier family 12 (SLC12) family has been reported to be involved in various physiological and pathological processes, but their functional roles in glioma remain unclear.Using public datasets, we studied the mutation and expression level of SLC12 family genes in glioma and identified the significantly differentially expressed member solute carrier family 12 member 9 (SLC12A9). We further predicted the prognostic role of SLC12A9 in glioma by using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis. Then, we performed biological functional enrichment analysis. We focused on the relationships between SLC12A9 expression and immune infiltration in glioma. Meanwhile, we conducted in vitro experiments to evaluate the effect of SLC12A9 expression on glioma cells.Among the members of the SLC12 family, SLC12A9 had the highest mutation rate in glioma, with gene amplification as the major mutation type, and its expression was significantly upregulated in glioma. Higher SLC12A9 expression was significantly associated with older age, higher grade, wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), and a worse prognosis. The functional enrichment analysis indicated that SLC12A9 is mainly related to ion channel annotation. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed that SLC12A9 was mainly related to the DNA replication pathway. Furthermore, we found that SLC12A9 correlated with tumor-infiltrating immune cells and immune checkpoints. Thus, SLC12A9 may be involved in regulating the immune response of glioma. Finally, our in vitro experiments revealed that silencing SLC12A9 dramatically inhibited glioma cell growth and migration.We showed that SLC12A9 may be a new predictive biomarker for glioma diagnosis, prognosis, and immunotherapy response, offering helpful guidelines to advance glioma treatment.
