Identification of a multidimensional transcriptome signature for survival prediction of postoperative glioblastoma multiforme patients.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is a devastating brain tumor with maximum surgical resection, radiotherapy plus concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) as the standard treatment. Diverse clinicopathological and molecular features are major obstacles to accurate predict survival and evaluate the efficacy of chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Reliable prognostic biomarkers are urgently needed for postoperative GBM patients. METHODS:The protein coding genes (PCGs) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) gene expression profiles of 233 GBM postoperative patients were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), TANRIC and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. We randomly divided the TCGA set into a training (n?=?76) and a test set (n?=?77) and used GSE7696 (n?=?80) as an independent validation set. Survival analysis and the random survival forest algorithm were performed to screen survival associated signature. RESULTS:Six PCGs (EIF2AK3, EPRS, GALE, GUCY2C, MTHFD2, RNF212) and five lncRNAs (CTD-2140B24.6, LINC02015, AC068888.1, CERNA1, LINC00618) were screened out by a risk score model and formed a PCG-lncRNA signature for its predictive power was strongest (AUC?=?0.78 in the training dataset). The PCG-lncRNA signature could divide patients into high- risk or low-risk group with significantly different survival (median 7.47 vs. 18.27 months, log-rank test P?

Project description:BackgroundBrain glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary malignant intracranial tumor. The prognosis of this disease is extremely poor. While the introduction of β-interferon (IFN-β) regimen in the treatment of gliomas has significantly improved the outcome of patients; The mechanism by which IFN-β induces increased TMZ sensitivity has not been described. Therefore, the main objective of the study was to elucidate the molecular mechanisms responsible for the beneficial effect of IFNβ in GBM.MethodsMessenger RNA expression profiles and clinicopathological data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) GBM and GSE83300 dataset from the Gene Expression Omnibus. Univariate Cox regression analysis and lasso Cox regression model established a novel 4-gene IFN-β signature (peroxiredoxin 1, Sec61 subunit beta, X-ray repair cross-complementing 5, and Bcl-2-like protein 2) for GBM prognosis prediction. Further, GBM samples (n=50) and normal brain tissues (n=50) were then used for real-time polymerase chain reaction experiments. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to further understand the underlying molecular mechanisms. Pearson correlation was applied to calculate the correlation between the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and IFN-β-associated genes. An lncRNA with a correlation coefficient |R2|>0.3 and P<0.05 was considered to be an IFN-β-associated lncRNA.ResultsPatients in the high-risk group had significantly poorer survival than patients in the low-risk group. The signature was found to be an independent prognostic factor for GBM survival. Furthermore, GSEA revealed several significantly enriched pathways, which might help explain the underlying mechanisms. Our study identified a novel robust 4-gene IFN-β signature for GBM prognosis prediction. The signature might contain potential biomarkers for metabolic therapy and treatment response prediction for GBM patients.ConclusionsIn the present study, we established a novel IFN-β-associated gene signature to predict the overall survival of GBM patients, which may help in clinical decision making for individual treatment.
