CKMT1B is a potential prognostic biomarker and associated with immune infiltration in Lower-grade glioma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Lower-grade glioma (LGG) is the most common histology identified in glioma. CKMT1B has not been investigated in glioma. The purpose of this research was to investigate the prognostic value of CKMT1B and its correlation with immune infiltration in LGG.

Methods

We used Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) to analyze the expression of CKMT1B in LGG. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to assess the effect of CKMT1B expression and screened variables on survival. The correlation between CKMT1B and immune infiltration was evaluated by TIMER and CIBERSORT. Moreover, the possible biological functions of CKMT1B were studied by GSEA. The statistical analysis was conducted by R software.

Results

The expression of CKMT1B was significantly lower than the normal samples in LGG. Low expression of CKMT1B predicts a worse prognosis. Multivariate Cox analyses revealed that CKMT1B might be an independent favorable prognostic indicator. TIMER analysis revealed that CKMT1B expression level was related to immune infiltration. CIBERSORT analysis showed that CKMT1B expression was positively related to the infiltration level of activated mast cells and negatively related to macrophage M2 in LGG. Moreover, GESA showed that multiple cancer-related and immune-related gene sets were enriched in the low-CKMT1B group in the top 5 of the most significant differences.

Conclusion

CKMT1B is a prognostic biomarker with potential applications and associated with immune infiltration in Lower-grade glioma.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that the prognosis of patients with lower-grade glioma (LGG) is closely related to the infiltration of immune cells and the expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). In this paper, we applied single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) algorithm to evaluate the expression level of immune genes from tumor tissues in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and divided patients into the high immune group and the low immune group, which were separately analyzed for differential expression. Venn analysis was taken to select 36 immune-related lncRNAs. To construct a prognostic model of LGG based on immune-related lncRNAs, we divided patients into a training set and a verification set at a ratio of 2:1. Univariate Cox regression and the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression were performed to select 11 immune-related lncRNAs associated with the prognosis of LGG, and based on these selected lncRNAs, the risk scoring model was constructed. Through Kaplan-Meier analysis, the overall survival (OS) of patients in the high-risk group was significantly lower than that of the low-risk group. Then, established a nomogram including age, gender, neoplasm histologic grade, and risk score. Meanwhile, the predictive performance of the model was evaluated by calculating the C-index, drawing the calibration chart, the clinical decision curve as well as the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. Similar results were obtained by utilizing the validation data to verify the above consequences. Based on the TIMER database, the correlation analysis showed that the 11 immune-related lncRNAs risk score of LGG were in connection with the infiltration of the subtypes of immune cells. Subsequently, we performed enrichment analysis, whose results showed that these immune-related lncRNAs played important roles in the progress of LGG. In conclusion, these 11 immune-related lncRNAs have the potential to predict the prognosis of patients with LGG, which may play a key role in the development of LGG.
