Aim: The present study aimed to explore the clinical association of TRPC1 with tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) tumor features and prognosis. Methods: A total of 246 TSCC patients who underwent surgical resection were retrospectively analyzed, and their tissue specimens were acquired for TRPC1 protein and mRNA detection. Results: TRPC1 protein immunohistochemistry score and mRNA expression were of good value in differentiating TSCC tissue from tumor-adjacent tissue and were positively correlated with pathological grade and tumor node metastasis stage. A high TRPC1 protein score was negatively correlated with overall survival, and this correlation was dramatically obvious in patients who received adjuvant radiotherapy. Conclusion: TRPC1 correlates with poor tumor features and unfavorable survival in TSCC patients.
