Syntaxin-6 (STX6), a vesicular transport protein, is a direct target of the tumor suppressor gene P53, supporting cancer growth dependent on P53. However, STX6’s function in the tumor microenvironment has yet to be reported. In this research, we comprehensively explored the role of the oncogene STX6 in pan-cancer by combining data from several databases, including the Cancer Genome Atlas, CPTAC, cBioPortal, and TIMER. Then, we verified the carcinogenic effect of STX6 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal cancer (CRC) through a series of experiments in vitro and in vivo. Bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that STX6 is an oncogene for several cancers and is mainly involved in the cell cycle, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, oxidative phosphorylation, and tumor immune modulation, especially for tumor-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and NKT cells. Additionally, a high level of STX6 could indicate patients’ resistance to immunotherapy. Our own data indicated that the STX6 level was upregulated in HCC and CRC. Knockdown of the STX6 levels could arrest the cell cycle and restrain cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. RNA-seq indicated that STX6 was significantly involved in pathways for cancer, such as the MAPK signal pathway. In a mouse model, knockdown of STX6 inhibited tumor growth and potentiated anti-PD-1 efficacy. In light of the essential roles STX6 plays in carcinogenesis and cancer immunology, it has the potential to be a predictive biomarker and a target for cancer immunotherapy.
