Pin2/TRF1-interacting telomere inhibitor 1 (PinX1) was originally identified as a telomerase inhibitor, involved in maintaining telomerase activity, telomere length, and chromosomal stability. However, research has shown that PinX1 can have opposing molecular status in its expression patterns in several other tumor types. We thus investigated the genetic profile and biological implication of PinX1 in several human cancers using the cBioportal database. Our results showed that PinX1 deletion accounted for the most alterations, with the frequency of its deletion regularly occurring in pathological types of carcinosarcoma and adenocarcinoma. We found few instances of PinX1 gene mutations and 3D structural analysis demonstrated that these mutation sites were always located within telomerase inhibitor domains. Furthermore, our analysis of several human cancers from the cBioportal database revealed more frequent PinX1 homozygous depletion and PinX1 heterozygous deficiency, but both more infrequent PinX1 gain and rare instances of PinX1 amplification. The status of PinX1 genetic alterations was correlated with prognosis and may be tumor-type specific. As such, its biological function in tumorigenesis and later prognosis is complicated and may involve co-worked with NEIL2, R3HCC1, POLR3D, GTF2E2, and INTS10. In addition, we observed that PinX1 interacts with TERT, DKC1, PTGES3, and HSP90AA1. PinX1 mRNA expression was decreased in most selected cancer tissues, which could promote tumor growth and enhance tumorigenicity. Collectively, our data reveal PinX1 expression patterns and potential mechanisms in various human cancers. Further work will be needed to comprehensively examine its role in tumor genesis and progression.
