Development of a miRNA-seq based prognostic signature in lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:We utilized miRNAs expression and clinical data to develop a prognostic signature for patients with lung adenocarcinoma, with respect to their overall survival, to identify high-risk subjects based on their miRNA genomic profile. METHODS:MiRNA expressions based on miRNA sequencing and clinical data of lung adenocarcinoma patients (n?=?479) from the Cancer Genome Atlas were randomly partitioned into non-overlapping Model (n?=?320) and Test (n?=?159) sets, respectively, for model estimation and validation. RESULTS:Among the ten miRNAs identified using the univariate Cox analysis, six from miR-8, miR-181, miR-326, miR-375, miR-99a, and miR-10, families showed improvement of the overall survival chance, while two miRNAs from miR-582 and miR-584 families showed a worsening of survival chances. The final prognostic signature was developed with five miRNAs-miR-375, miR-582-3p, miR-326, miR-181c-5p, and miR-99a-5p-utilizing a stepwise variable selection procedure. Using the KEGG pathway analysis, we found potential evidence supporting their significance in multiple cancer pathways, including non-small cell lung cancer. We defined two risk groups with a score calculated using the Cox regression coefficients. The five-year survival rates for the low-risk group was approximately 48.76% (95% CI?=?(36.15, 63.93)); however, it was as low as 7.50% (95% CI?=?(2.34, 24.01)) for the high-risk group. Furthermore, we demonstrated the effect of the genomic profile using the miRNA signature, quantifying survival rates for hypothetical subjects in different pathological stages of cancer. CONCLUSIONS:The proposed prognostic signature can be used as a reliable tool for identifying high-risk subjects regarding survival based on their miRNA genomic profile.

Project description:Precision therapy for lung cancer will require comprehensive genomic testing to identify actionable targets as well as ascertain disease prognosis. RNA-seq is a robust platform that meets these requirements, but microarray-derived prognostic signatures are not optimal for RNA-seq data. Thus, we undertook the first prognostic analysis of lung adenocarcinoma RNA-seq data and generated a prognostic signature. Lung adenocarcinoma RNA-seq and clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were divided chronologically into training (n = 255) and validation (n = 157) cohorts. In the training cohort, prognostic association was assessed by univariate Cox analysis. A prognostic signature was built with stepwise multivariable Cox analysis. Outcomes by risk group, stage, and mutation status were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox analyses. All the statistical tests were two-sided. In the training cohort, 96 genes had prognostic association with P values of less than or equal to 1.00x10-4, including five long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). Stepwise regression generated a four-gene signature, including one lncRNA. Signature high-risk cases had worse overall survival (OS) in the TCGA validation cohort (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.07, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.00 to 14.62) and a University of Michigan institutional cohort (n = 67; HR = 2.05, 95% CI = 1.18 to 4.55), and worse metastasis-free survival in the TCGA validation cohort (HR = 3.05, 95% CI = 2.31 to 13.37). The four-gene prognostic signature also statistically significantly stratified overall survival in important clinical subsets, including stage I (HR = 2.78, 95% CI = 1.91 to 11.13), EGFR wild-type (HR = 3.01, 95% CI = 1.73 to 14.98), and EGFR mutant (HR = 8.99, 95% CI = 62.23 to 141.44). The four-gene prognostic signature also stood out on top when compared with other prognostic signatures. Here, we present the first RNA-seq prognostic signature for lung adenocarcinoma that can provide a powerful prognostic tool for precision oncology as part of an integrated RNA-seq clinical sequencing program.

Project description:BackgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common subtype of non-small cell lung cancer. Ferroptosis is a newly recognized process of cell death, which is different from other forms of cell death in morphology, biochemistry, and genetics, and has played a vital role in cancer biology. This study aimed to identify a ferroptosis-related gene signature associated with LUAD prognosis.MethodsDataset TCGA-LUAD which came from the TCGA portal was taken as the training cohort. GSE72094 and GSE68465 from the GEO database were treated as validation cohorts. Two hundred fifty-nine ferroptosis-related genes were retrieved from the FerrDb database. In the training cohort, Kaplan-Meier and univariate Cox analyses were conducted for preliminary screening of ferroptosis-related genes with potential prognostic capacity. These genes then entered into the LASSO Cox regression model, constructing a gene signature. The latter was then evaluated in the training and validation cohorts via Kaplan-Meier, Cox, and ROC analyses. In addition, the correlations between risk score and autophagy were examined by Pearson correlation coefficient. The analyses of GSEA and immune infiltrating were performed for better studying the function annotation of the gene signature and the character of each kind of immune cells played in the tumor microenvironment.ResultsA 15-gene signature was found from the training cohort and validated by Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses, revealing its independent prognosis value in LUAD. Moreover, the ROC analysis was conducted, confirming a strong predictive ability that this signature owned for LUAD prognosis. One hundred fifty-one of 222 (68.01%) autophagy-related genes were discovered significantly correlated with risk scores. Analyses of GSEA and immune infiltration exhibited in detail the specific pathways that associate with the 15-gene signature and identified the crucial roles of resting mast cells and resting dendritic cells owned in the prognosis of the 15-gene signature.ConclusionIn this present study, a novel ferroptosis-related 15-gene signature (RELA, ACSL3, YWHAE, EIF2S1, CISD1, DDIT4, RRM2, PANX1, TLR4, ARNTL, LPIN1, HERPUD1, NCOA4, PEBP1, and GLS2) was built. It could accurately predict the prognosis of LUAD and was related to resting mast cells and resting dendritic cells, which provide potential for the personalized outcome prediction and the development of new therapies in LUAD population.

Project description:Objective: The stratification of neuroblastoma (NBL) prognosis remains difficult. RNA-based signatures might be able to predict prognosis, but independent cross-platform validation is still rare. Methods: RNA-Seq-based profiles from NBL patients were acquired and then analyzed. The RNA-Seq prognostic index (RPI) and the clinically adjusted RPI (RCPI) were successively established in the training cohort (TARGET-NBL) and then verified in the validation cohort (GSE62564). Survival prediction was assessed using a time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the ROC curve (AUC). Functional enrichment analysis of the genes was conducted using bioinformatics methods. Results: In the training cohort, 10 gene pairs were eventually integrated into the RPI. In both cohorts, the high-risk group had poor overall survival (OS) (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively) and favorable event-free survival (EFS) (P = 0.00032 and P = 0.06, respectively). ROC curve analysis also showed that the RPI predicted OS (60 month AUC values of 0.718 and 0.593, respectively) and EFS (60 month AUC values of 0.627 and 0.852, respectively) well in both the training and validation cohorts. Clinicopathological indicators associated with prognosis in the univariate and multivariate regression analyses were identified and added to the RPI to form the RCPI. The RCPI was also used to divide populations into different risk groups, and the high-risk group had poor OS (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively) and EFS (P < 0.05 and P < 0.05, respectively). Finally, the RCPI had higher accuracy than the RPI for the prediction of OS (60 month AUC values of 0.730 and 0.852, respectively) and EFS (60 month AUC values of 0.663 and 0.763, respectively) in both the training and validation cohorts. Moreover, these differentially expressed genes may be involved in certain NBL-related events. Conclusions: The RCPI could reliably categorize NBL patients based on different risks of death.
