An integrative microenvironment approach for laryngeal carcinoma: the role of immune/methylation/autophagy signatures on disease clinical prognosis and single-cell genotypes.

ABSTRACT: The effects of methylation/autophagy-related genes (MARGs) and immune infiltration in the tumor microenvironment on the prognosis of laryngeal cancer were comprehensively explored in this study. Survival analysis screened out 126 MARGs and 10 immune cells potentially associated with the prognosis of laryngeal carcinoma. Cox and lasso regression analyses were then used to select 8 MARGs (CAPN10, DAPK2, MBTPS2, ST13, CFLAR, FADD, PEX14 and TSC2) and 2 immune cells (Eosinophil and Mast cell) to obtain the prognostic risk scoring system (pRS). The pRS was used to establish a risk prediction model for the prognosis of laryngeal cancer. The predictive ability of the prediction model was evaluated by GEO datasets and our clinical samples. Further analysis revealed that pRS is highly associated with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), copy number variation (CNV), immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy and tumor microenvironment. Moreover, the screened pRS-related ceRNA network and circ_0002951/miR-548k/HAS2 pathway provide potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers of laryngocarcinoma. Based on the clustering results of pRS-related genes, single cells were then genotyped and revealed by integrated scRNA-seq in laryngeal cancer samples. Fibroblasts were found enriched in high risk cell clusters at the scRNA-seq level. Fibroblast-related ligand-receptor interactions were then exposed and a neural network-based deep learning model based on these pRS-related hub gene signatures was also established with a high accuracy in cell type prediction. In conclusion, the combination of single-cell and transcriptome laryngeal carcinoma landscape analyses can investigate the link between the tumor microenvironmental and prognostic characteristics.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the most aggressive hematological malignancies with a low 5-year survival rate and high rate of relapse. Developing more efficient therapies is an urgent need for AML treatment. Accumulating evidence showed that ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of programmed cell death, is closely correlated with cancer initiation and clinical outcome through reshaping the tumor microenvironment. However, understanding of AML heterogeneity based on extensive profiling of ferroptosis signatures remains to be investigated yet. Herein, five independent AML transcriptomic datasets (TCGA-AML, GSE37642, GSE12417, GSE10358, and GSE106291) were obtained from the GEO and TCGA databases. Then, we identified two ferroptosis-related molecular subtypes (C1 and C2) with distinct prognosis and tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) by consensus clustering. Patients in the C1 subtype were associated with favorable clinical outcomes and increased cytotoxic immune cell infiltration, including CD8+/central memory T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and non-regulatory CD4+ T cells while showing decreased suppressive immune subsets such as M2 macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes. Functional enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) implied that cell activation involved in immune response, leukocyte cell-cell adhesion and migration, and cytokine production were the main biological processes. Phagosome, antigen processing and presentation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, B-cell receptor, and chemokine were identified as the major pathways. To seize the distinct landscape in C1 vs. C2 subtypes, a 5-gene prognostic signature (LSP1, IL1R2, MPO, CRIP1, and SLC24A3) was developed using LASSO Cox stepwise regression analysis and further validated in independent AML cohorts. Patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups, and decreased survival rates were observed in high- vs. low-risk groups. The TIME between high- and low-risk groups has a similar scenery in C1 vs. C2 subtypes. Single-cell-level analysis verified that LSP1 and CRIP1 were upregulated in AML and exhausted CD8+ T cells. Dual targeting of these two markers might present a promising immunotherapeutic for AML. In addition, potential effective chemical drugs for AML were predicted. Thus, we concluded that molecular subtyping using ferroptosis signatures could characterize the TIME and provide implications for monitoring clinical outcomes and predicting novel therapies.
