Inhibition of Heme Oxygenase 1 Suppresses Growth, Migration, and Invasion, and Regulates Tumor-Infiltrating CD8+ T Cells and in Uveal Melanoma

Abstract Purpose: Metastatic uveal melanoma (UM) treatment is difficult, and effective treatments are urgently needed. We aimed to explore the role of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) in UM and provide new therapeutic strategies for UM. Methods: Bioinformatics was used to analyze the relationship between HMOX1 and immunity in UM and other tumors. Cell Counting Kit-8, Western blot, immunofluorescence staining, wound healing, and Transwell assays were used. A subcutaneous transplanted UM tumor model was used in mice to verify the therapeutic
