Background Interleukin-2 receptor β (IL2RB) is a receptor protein of interleukin-2. IL2RB is implicated in regulation of T cell-mediated immune response. However, the role of IL2RB in pan-cancer is unknown. The present premise sought to explore the role of IL2RB in tumorigenesis, tumor metabolism, and tumor immunity in pan-cancer. Methods Data were retrieved from multiple data resources including GTEx data resource, CCLE data resource, TCGA data resource, UCSC data resource, and TISIDB web server. These data were adopted to assess the expression, prognosis value, relationship between IL2RB and immune microenvironment, microsatellite instability, immune new antigen, gene mutation, immune modulatory factors immune checkpoint and TMB, and immune or molecular subtypes of IL2RB in various tumors. Estimate analysis and GSEA were conducted to assess the role of IL2RB in pan-cancer. Results Differential analysis illustrated that L2RB was remarkably elevated in pan-cancer, notably in solid tumors compared with normal tissues. Survival analysis indicated that IL2RB was linked to pan-cancer prognosis, and elevated IL2RB contents were remarkably linked to dismal prognosis patients in diverse kinds of cancers. The findings illustrated that IL2RB contents were remarkably linked to tumor immune invasion, tumor microenvironment, TMB, MSI, DNA repair genes, methyl transferases, immune modulatory factors, and immune or molecular subtypes in pan-cancer. IL2RB gene mutation was evident in numerous cancers. The data illustrated that IL2RB contents were remarkably enriched in multiple signaling cascades which modulate tumorigenesis, tumor metabolism along with immunity. Conclusion The findings of the present premise illustrate that IL2RB plays an indispensible role in tumorigenesis, tumor metabolism, and immunity. Therefore, it is a prospective target gene in tumor-target therapy and tumor immune therapy. IL2RB is also a valuable predictive biomarker in most solid tumors.
