Glycolysis Define Two Prognostic Subgroups of Lung Adenocarcinoma With Different Mutation Characteristics and Immune Infiltration Signatures.

ABSTRACT: Increasing studies have proved that malignant tumors are associated with energy metabolism. This study was aimed to explore biological variables that impact the prognosis of patients in the glycolysis-related subgroups of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). The mRNA expression profiling and mutation data in large LUAD samples were collected from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Then, we identified the expression level and prognostic value of glycolysis-related genes, as well as the fractions of 22 immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. The differences between glycolysis activity, mutation, and immune infiltrates were discussed in these groups, respectively. Two hundred fifty-five glycolysis-related genes were identified from gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), of which 43 genes had prognostic values (p < 0.05). Next, we constructed a glycolysis-related competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network which related to the survival of LUAD. Then, two subgroups of LUAD (clusters 1 and 2) were identified by applying unsupervised consensus clustering to 43 glycolysis-related genes. The survival analysis showed that the cluster 1 patients had a worse prognosis (p < 0.001), and upregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) are interestingly enriched in malignancy-related biological processes. The differences between the two subgroups are SPTA1, KEAP1, USH2A, and KRAS among top 10 mutated signatures, which may be the underlying mechanism of grouping. Combined high tumor mutational burden (TMB) with tumor subgroups preferably predicts the prognosis of LUAD patients. The CIBERSORT algorithm results revealed that low TMB samples were concerned with increased infiltration level of memory resting CD4+ T cell (p = 0.03), resting mast cells (p = 0.044), and neutrophils (p = 0.002) in cluster 1 and high TMB samples were concerned with increased infiltration level of memory B cells, plasma cells, CD4 memory-activated T cells, macrophages M1, and activated mast cells in cluster 2, while reduced infiltration of monocytes, resting dendritic cells, and resting mast cells was captured in cluster 2. In conclusion, significant different gene expression characteristics were pooled according to the two subgroups of LUAD. The combination of subgroups, TMB and tumor-infiltrating immune cell signature, might be a novel prognostic biomarker in LUAD.

Project description:BackgroundOverexpression of NPM1 can promote the growth and proliferation of various tumor cells. However, there are few studies on the comprehensive analysis of NPM1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).MethodsTCGA and GEO data sets were used to analyze the expression of NPM1 in LUAD and clinicopathological analysis. The GO/KEGG enrichment analysis of NPM1 co-expression and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were performed using R software package. The relationship between NPM1 expression and LUAD immune infiltration was analyzed using TIMER, GEPIA database and TCGA data sets, and the relationship between NPM1 expression level and LUAD m6A modification and glycolysis was analyzed using TCGA and GEO data sets.ResultsNPM1 was overexpressed in a variety of tumors including LUAD, and the ROC curve showed that NPM1 had a certain accuracy in predicting the outcome of tumors and normal samples. The expression level of NPM1 in LUAD is significantly related to tumor stage and prognosis. The GO/KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that NPM1 was closely related to translational initiation, ribosome, structural constituent of ribosome, ribosome, Parkinson disease, and RNA transport. GSEA showed that the main enrichment pathway of NPM1-related differential genes was mainly related to mTORC1 mediated signaling, p53 hypoxia pathway, signaling by EGFR in cancer, antigen activates B cell receptor BCR leading to generation of second messengers, aerobic glycolysis and methylation pathways. The analysis of TIMER, GEPIA database and TCGA data sets showed that the expression level of NPM1 was negatively correlated with B cells and NK cells. The TCGA and GEO data sets analysis indicated that the NPM1 expression was significantly correlated with one m6A modifier related gene (YTHDF2) and five glycolysis related genes (ENO1, HK2, LDHA, LDHB and SLC2A1).ConclusionNPM1 is a prognostic biomarker involved in immune infiltration of LUAD and associated with m6A modification and glycolysis. NPM1 can be used as an effective target for diagnosis and treatment of LUAD.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence rate of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is rapidly increasing. Recent studies have reported that histone acetylation modification plays an important role in the occurrence and development of tumors. However, the potential role of modification of histone acetylation modification in the development of tumor immune microenvironment is still unclear.MethodsIn this study, we comprehensively evaluated the acetylation modification patterns of LUAD samples obtained from various different databases based on 36 histone modification regulators, and constructed a prognostic model based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) LUAD cohort using the Cox regression method. The close relationship between histone acetylation and tumor immune characteristics was further studied, including immune infiltration, immune escape and immunotherapy. Finally, we combined three cohort (GSE30219, GSE72094 and GSE50081) from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to verify the above results.ResultsWe analyzed the expression, mutation and interaction of 36 histone acetylation regulated genes. After Univariate Cox regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LASSO), 5 genes (KAT2B, SIRT2, HDAC5, KAT8, HDAC2) were screened to establish the prognosis model and calculate the risk score. Then, patients in the TCGA cohort were divided into high- and low-risk groups based on the risk scores. Further analysis indicated that patients in the high-risk group exhibited significantly reduced overall survival (OS) compared with those in the low-risk group. The high- and low-risk groups exhibited significant differences in terms of tumor immune characteristics, such as immune infiltration, immune escape and immunotherapy. The high-risk group had lower immune score, less immune cell infiltration and higher clinical stage. Moreover, multivariate analysis revealed that this prognostic model might be a powerful prognostic predictor for LUAD. In addition, drugs sensitive for this classification were identified. Finally, the efficacy of the prognostic model was validated by cohort (GSE30219, GSE72094 and GSE50081) from GEO database.ConclusionsOur study provided a robust signature for predicting changing prognosis of patients with LUAD. Thus, it appears to be a potentially useful prognostic tool. Moreover, the important relationship between histone acetylation and tumor immune microenvironment was revealed.
