Further analysis of these five genes revealed that TIMP3 in ovarian cancer fibroblasts affected tumor prognosis, immunosuppression, and drug resistance by targeting M2-type macrophages through the regulation of the CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling axis, which was specifically shown that the higher the expression of TIMP3, the worse the prognosis, the more significant the immune infiltration, and the more drug-resistant the ovarian cancer was. Here, CXCR4 is linked to neoplasm.
