Predicting lung adenocarcinoma prognosis with a novel risk scoring based on platelet-related gene expression.

ABSTRACT: Lung adenocarcinoma is the most common subtype of non-small cell lung cancer, and platelet receptor-related genes are related to its occurrence and progression. A new prognostic indicator based on platelet receptor-related genes was developed with multivariate COX analysis. Prognostic markers based on platelet-related risk score perform moderately in prognosis prediction. The functional annotation of this risk model in high-risk patients shows that the pathways related to cell cycle, glycolysis and platelet-derived related factors are rich. It is worth noting that somatic mutation analysis shows that TTN and MUC16 have higher mutation burdens in high-risk patients. Moreover, the differential genes of high- and low-risk groups are regulated by copy number variation and miRNA. And we provide a free online nomogram web tool based on clinical factors and the risk score (https://wsxzaq.shinyapps.io/wsxzaq_nomogram/). The score has been verified among three independent external cohorts (GSE13213, GSE68465 and GSE72094), and is still an independent risk factor for lung adenocarcinoma. In addition, among the other 6 cancers, the OS prognosis of high and low-risk groups of PRS is different (P < 0.05). Our research results have screened multiple platelet differential genes with clinical significance and constructed a meaningful prognostic risk score (PRS).
