Prostate cancer is currently one of the most common fatal tumor types in men. Although multiple treatments can alleviate some cases, advanced prostate cancer, especially CRPC, still has a very poor prognosis. Therefore, early detection and diagnosis of prostate cancer have a very important role in the prognosis of patients. Glycoprotein M6B (GPM6B) is a transmembrane protein that belongs to the proteolipid protein family. GPM6B has been proved and can be used as a biomarker for gynecological malignancies and breast carcinoma. However, there are no studies that explored the functions of GPM6B in PCa. We explored differentially expressed genes in prostate cancer by analyzing TCGA data and found GPM6B downregulated in PCa tissues compared to that in normal prostate tissues. The GPM6B expression in PCa patient’s tumor tissues was significantly related to clinical stage, T classification, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis, but not significantly related to age and Gleason score. Also, patients with highGPM6B expression had a better prognosis. The overexpression of GPM6B in prostate cancer cells could inhibit cell proliferation. Serotonin treatment could enhance the proliferation of PCa cell lines; moreover, fluoxetine could reverse this result. In conclusion, we identified GPM6B as a tumor suppressor in PCa. In mechanism, it can regulate the uptaking of serotonin and inhibit the growth of prostate cancer. These results suggested the potential function of GPM6B as a diagnostic marker of PCa and provided clues for the development of new treatment targets for PCa.
