Protein disulphide isomerase can predict the clinical prognostic value and contribute to malignant progression in gliomas.

ABSTRACT: Increasing evidence from structural and functional studies has indicated that protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) has a critical role in the proliferation, survival and metastasis of several types of cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms through which PDI contributes to glioma remain unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate whether the differential expression of 17 PDI family members was closely related to the different clinicopathological features in gliomas from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas data sets. Additionally, four subgroups of gliomas (cluster 1/2/3/4) were identified based on consensus clustering of the PDI gene family. These findings not only demonstrated that a poorer prognosis, higher WHO grade, lower frequency of isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation and higher 1p/19q non-codeletion status were significantly correlated with cluster 4 compared with the other clusters, but also indicated that the malignant progression of glioma was closely correlated with the expression of PDI family members. Moreover, we also constructed an independent prognostic marker that can predict the clinicopathological features of gliomas. Overall, the results indicated that PDI family members may serve as possible diagnostic markers in gliomas.

Project description:ObjectiveThe malignant progression from non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) to muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is common and has detrimental effect on patients. We aimed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of the malignant progression from an immunological perspective and establish a reliable signature for prognostic prediction and immunotherapeutic strategies.MethodsThe Cell Type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of RNA Transcripts algorithm was applied to the GSE32894 data set to identify the different tumor-infiltrating immune cells involved in NMIBC and MIBC. Using weighted gene correlation network analysis, survival analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox analysis, we established an immune prognostic signature (IPS) based on 14 overall survival-associated immune genes in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Functional enrichment analyses and nomogram were performed to explore the potential effects and prognostic performance of the IPS. Furthermore, the RNA-sequence data from our center were used to validate the expression levels of the selected immune genes in BLCA samples.ResultsDiverse proportions of macrophage subtypes were observed between NMIBC and MIBC. Patients with high risk scores had a worse prognosis than patients with low risk scores in training (TCGA) and validation data sets (GSE32894, GSE13507, and GSE48277). The IPS was a useful prognostic factor for patients treated with immunotherapy in the IMvigor210 trial. Hallmarks of multiple oncogenic pathways were significantly enriched in the high risk group. A novel nomogram model was established for prognostic predictions. The dysregulated expression of the selected immune genes between NMIBC and MIBC was also validated in BLCA samples.ConclusionDysregulation of the immune microenvironment promoted the malignant progression from NMIBC to MIBC. The IPS can stratify patients into different risk groups with distinct prognoses and immunotherapeutic susceptibility, thus facilitating personalized immunotherapy.
