Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of Protein Post-translational Modifications in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor with high incidence and cancer mortality worldwide. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins have a great impact on protein function. Almost all proteins can undergo PTMs, including phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, glycosylation, ubiquitination, and so on. Many studies have shown that PTMs are related to the occurrence and development of cancers. The findings provide novel therapeutic targets for cancers, such as glypican-3 and mucin-1. Other clinical implications are also found in the studies of PTMs. Diagnostic or prognostic value, and response to therapy have been identified. In HCC, it has been shown that glycosylated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) has a higher detection rate for early liver cancer than conventional AFP. In this review, we mainly focused on the diagnostic and prognostic value of PTM, in order to provide new insights into the clinical implication of PTM in HCC.

Project description:Background: A high mortality rate makes hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) one of the most common types of cancer globally. 5-methylcytosine (m5C) is an epigenetic modification that contributes to the prognosis of several cancers, but its relevance to HCC remains unknown. We sought to determine if the m5C-related regulators had any diagnostic or prognostic value in HCC. Methods: M5C regulatory genes were screened and compared between HCC and normal tissue from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method (LASSO) and univariate Cox regression analysis of differentially expressed genes were then performed to identify diagnostic markers. A LASSO prognostic model was constructed using M5C regulatory genes with prognostic values screened by TCGA expression data. HCC patients were stratified based on risk score, then clinical characteristics analysis and immune correlation analysis were performed for each subgroup, and the molecular functions of different subgroups were analyzed using both Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA). The prognostic model was evaluated using univariate and multivariate Cox analyses as well as a nomogram. Molecular typing was performed according to m5C regulatory genes and immune checkpoint genes expression respectively, and clinical characterization and immune correlation analysis were performed for each subgroup. Results: M5C regulatory genes are expressed differently in HCC patients with different clinical and pathological characteristics, and mutations in these genes are frequent. Based on five m5C regulators (NOP2, NSUN2, TET1, YBX1, and DNMT3B), we constructed a prognostic model with high predictive ability. The risk score was found to be an independent prognostic indicator. Additionally, risk scores can also be applied in subgroups with different clinical characteristics as prognostic indicators. Conclusion: The study combined data from TCGA and GEO for the first time to reveal the genetic and prognostic significance of m5C-related regulators in HCC, which provides new directions for identifying predictive biomarkers and developing molecularly targeted therapies for HCC.
