Iroquoishomeobox transcription factor family （IRXs）have been increasingly reported to play roles in suppressing or promoting a variety of cancers, however, little is known about their expression and prognostic value in terms of human lung cancer. In this study, Oncomine, GEPIA, Kaplan-Meier plotter, and cBioPortal databases were used to analyze the different expression patterns and prognostic values of six IRXs in NSCLC and examine their related functions and pathways using GO enrichment. Compared with normal lung cancer tissues, the expression of IRX1 and IRX2 in NSCLC tissues was significantly lower and was positively correlated with the 10-year survival rate of patients. Higher expression of IRX4 was related to terminal tumors, and suggested a poor prognosis. It was also found that IRXs may play a tumor-suppressive role in the localization of cytoplasm in NSCLC, while localization in the nucleus suggests a more malignant behavior. Together these results suggest that IRX1 and IRX2 may be prognostic indicators of LUAD, and that IRX4 could be a potential target for LUAD treatment.
