ALKBH5 expression correlated with the expression of immune checkpoint (ICP) genes, and influenced sensitivity to immunotherapy. We constructed a lncRNA-miRNA network that regulates ALKBH5 expression in tumor development and progression. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that ALKBH5 promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion of glioma cells and recruited the M2 macrophage to glioma cells. The gene discussed is ALKBH5; the disease is glioma.
