Objective: To analyze the relationship between TIGIT and clinical features of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, we use transcriptomic data from the TCGA database, and to investigate the relationship between TIGIT and the immune microenvironment of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, to provide a basis for improving the treatment strategy and prognosis of patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Methods: RNA sequencing data and clinical data corresponding to cancer tissues were obtained from the TCGA database for Esophageal carcinoma, Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma tissues, and paraneoplastic tissues;then we analyzed the differences in TIGIT expression in Esophageal carcinoma, Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, and normal esophageal tissues;then we analyzed the relationship between TIGIT expression levels and overall survival in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma;finally, we explored the relationship between TIGIT expression levels and overall survival in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma. We investigated the relationship between TIGIT and the tumor immune microenvironment of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma by tumor immune infiltration and functional enrichment analysis. Results: Our study revealed that TIGIT was highly expressed in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, and patients with high TIGIT expression had worse overall survival. We also found a close relationship between TIGIT expression levels and the immune microenvironment of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, with high TIGIT expression positively correlated with multiple immune cells. Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that TIGIT is associated with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma malignancy and is closely linked to the immune microenvironment. Furthermore, high expression of TIGIT often predicts poorer clinical features.
