[BAG family gene and its relationship with lung adenocarcinoma susceptibility].

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:BAG genes (Bcl-2-associated athanogene) belong to a recently discovered multifunctional anti-apoptosis gene family that regulate various physiological processes which include apoptosis, tumorigenesis, neural differentiation, stress response and cell cycle and so on. The expression status of BAG family genes are related to certain tumor incidence and prognosis. The aim of this study is to explore the association of the BAG family gene expression status with the susceptibility of lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS:The gene expression data of BAG family genes from 29 cases of lung adenocarcinoma tissues and matched pericancerous lung tissues were generated by microarray chips. Cox regression was used to analyze the association between the expression of BAG family genes and the susceptibility of lung adenocarcinoma and the results were verified by GEO database. RESULTS:The expression levels of BAG-1, BAG-2, BAG-5 in cancer tissues were significantly downregulated compared with matched pericancerous lung tissues and were protective factors of lung adenocarcinoma (P < 0.05, OR < 1); while the expression level of BAG-4 in cancer tissues were remarkably upregulated compared with the matched pericancerous lung tissues and was risk factor of lung adenocarcinoma (P < 0.05, OR > 1). CONCLUSIONS:BAG-1, BAG-2, BAG-5 might be the potential protective factors while BAG-4 is possible risk factor of lung adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Given the importance of solute carrier (SLC) proteins in maintaining cellular metabolic homeostasis and that their dysregulation contributes to cancer progression, here we constructed a robust SLC family signature for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patient stratification. Transcriptomic profiles and relevant clinical information of LUAD patients were downloaded from the TCGA and GEO databases. SLC family genes differentially expressed between LUAD tissues and adjacent normal tissues were identified using limma in R. Of these, prognosis-related SLC family genes were further screened out and used to construct a novel SLC family-based signature in the training cohort. The accuracy of the prognostic signature was assessed in the testing cohort, the entire cohort, and the external GSE72094 cohort. Correlations between the prognostic signature and the tumor immune microenvironment and immune cell infiltrates were further explored. We found that seventy percent of SLC family genes (279/397) were differentially expressed between LUAC tissues and adjacent normal. Twenty-six genes with p-values < 0.05 in univariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were regarded as prognosis-related SLC family genes, six of which were used to construct a prognostic signature for patient classification into high- and low-risk groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis in all internal and external cohorts revealed a better overall survival for patients in the low-risk group than those in the high-risk group. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that the derived risk score was an independent prognostic factor for LUAD patients. Moreover, a nomogram based on the six-gene signature and clinicopathological factors was developed for clinical application. High-risk patients had lower stromal, immune, and ESTIMATE scores and higher tumor purities than those in the low-risk group. The proportions of infiltrating naive CD4 T cells, activated memory CD4 T cells, M0 macrophages, resting dendritic cells, resting mast cells, activated mast cells, and eosinophils were significantly different between the high- and low-risk prognostic groups. In all, the six-gene SLC family signature is of satisfactory accuracy and generalizability for predicting overall survival in patients with LUAD. Furthermore, this prognostics signature is related to tumor immune status and distinct immune cell infiltrates in the tumor microenvironment.
