    Objective: To investigate the function of ATPase Na+/K+ Transporting Subunit Beta 3 (ATP1B3) in gliomas and the molecular mechanisms associated with them in order to identify a novel target and approach for glioma clinical diagnosis and treatment.Results: Database analysis revealed a negative correlation between the patients' prognosis and the expression level of ATP1B3, and a positive correlation with the malignant degree of the glioma. The mRNA and protein expression levels of ATP1B3 were significantly decreased after knockout, and the proliferation, migration and invasion ability of cells in knockout group were significantly lower than those in control group, with statistical difference. The immunoprecipitation results were negative, and the knockdown group's PPP1CA expression was lower than the control group's. Following ATP1B3 knockdown, Cyclin D1 and VEGFA protein expression levels dropped, and the effects were statistically significant. There was a statistically significant drop in the expression levels of p-Raf1, p-MEK 1/2, p-ERK 1/2, p-IκBα, and p-P65 following ATP1B3 deletion.Conclusion: In gliomas, ATP1B3 is highly expressed. Glioma cell motility, invasion, and proliferation all decline when ATP1B3 expression is lowered. The downstream protein PPP1CA is indirectly regulated by ATP1B3. By controlling the MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways, ATP1B3 may have a role in the invasion, migration, and proliferation of glioma cells. As a result, the ATP1B3 gene might be a biological target for treatment and a possible neurotumor diagnostic.Key words: glioma; ATP1B3; Proliferation; Migration; MAPK signaling pathway; NF-κB signaling pathways
