    ObjectiveChaperonin-containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 subunit 6A (CCT6A) involves several solid cancers' development and progression, while its clinical utility in prostate cancer management is rarely revealed. Consequently, the present study intended to investigate the linkage of CCT6A with disease features, treatment information, and prognosis of surgical prostate cancer patients.MethodsCCT6A in 220 surgical prostate cancer patients was determined via immunohistochemistry. Additionally, survival analyses on data from the public databases were performed to validate the prognostic value of CCT6A further.ResultsCCT6A expression was upregulated in tumor tissue than in adjacent tissue (P < 0.001). Increased CCT6A was related to elevated Gleason score (P < 0.001) and pathological T stage (P = 0.029). CCT6A was increased in patients with positive surgical margin status (vs. negative) (P = 0.029) and patients with adjuvant external-beam radiation therapy (vs. no) (P = 0.001). Concerning the prognostic value, high tumor CCT6A was linked with shortened disease-free survival (DFS) (P = 0.009), which was also validated through further Cox's proportional hazard regression model analyses (hazard ratio: 2.695, 95% CI: 1.086-6.683, P = 0.032), whereas CCT6A was not correlated with overall survival (OS) (P > 0.050). Additionally, the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis database indicated that high tumor CCT6A was related to shortened DFS (P = 0.036), but it was not associated with OS (P > 0.050); meanwhile, the Human Protein Atlas database suggested that high tumor CCT6A was linked with reduced OS (P = 0.048).ConclusionTumor CCT6A high expression correlates with the elevated Gleason score, pathological T stage, and shortened DFS in surgical prostate cancer patients.© 2023.
