High-temperature requirement factor A3 (HTRA3), a member of the HTRA protein family, is closely associated with apoptosis and plays a crucial role in controlling signal transmission and cancer development. However, the regulatory pathways of HTRA3 in tumors are not fully understood, necessitating a comprehensive analysis of HTRA3 in cancers. In this study, we conducted a multi-omics analysis of HTRA3 in pan-cancer using data from various databases including TCGA, cBioPortal, GeneMANIA, DAVID, TIMER2.0, SangerBox, and RNAactDrug. Our analysis included gene expression, survival prognosis, diagnostic value, mutation, gene-gene interaction, enrichment analysis, and drug sensitivity analysis. We found that HTRA3 is aberrantly expressed in a variety of cancers and significantly correlates with diagnosis, prognosis, TMB, MSI, immune checkpoint (ICP) genes, and drug sensitivity in various cancer types. HTRA3 is involved in a variety of cancer pathways, particularly extracellular matrix (ECM) alterations, and has a potential role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). HTRA3 expression is positively correlated with the abundance of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and endothelial cells in the tumor microenvironment, and is also positively correlated with immune scores, stromal scores, and ESTIMATE scores in multiple cancers. HTRA3 is often overexpressed in cancer and is associated with poor prognosis and regulation of the tumor's immune response. Therefore, it may serve as a novel biomarker for tumor diagnosis and treatment.
