Identification of Immune-Related lncRNA Prognostic Signature and Molecular Subtypes for Glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Background:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is extensively genetically and transcriptionally heterogeneous, which poses challenges for classification and management. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in the development and progression of GBM, especially in tumor-associated immune processes. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an immune-related lncRNAs (irlncRNAs) signature. Methods:Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were utilized to construct a prognostic model. GBM-specific CeRNA and PPI network was constructed to predict lncRNAs targets and evaluate the interactions of immune mRNAs translated proteins. GO and KEGG pathway analyses were used to show the biological functions and pathways of CeRNA network-related immunity genes. Consensus Cluster Plus analysis was used for GBM gene clustering. Then, we evaluated GBM subtype-specific prognostic values, clinical characteristics, genes and pathways, immune infiltration access single cell RNA-seq data, and chemotherapeutics efficacy. The hub genes were finally validated. Results:A total of 17 prognostically related irlncRNAs were screened to build a prognostic model signature based on six key irlncRNAs. Based on GBM-specific CeRNAs and enrichment analysis, PLAU was predicted as a target of lncRNA-H19 and mainly enriched in the malignant related pathways. GBM subtype-A displayed the most favorable prognosis, high proportion of genes (IDH1, ATRX, and EGFR) mutation, chemoradiotherapy, and low risk and was characterized by low expression of four high-risk lncRNAs (H19, HOTAIRM1, AGAP2-AS1, and AC002456.1) and one mRNA KRT8. GSs with poor survival were mainly infiltrated by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and astrocyte, and were more sensitive to gefitinib and roscovitine. Among GSs, three hub genes KRT8, NGFR, and TCEA3, were screened and validated to potentially play feasible oncogenic roles in GBM. Conclusion:Construction of lncRNAs risk model and identification of GBM subtypes based on 17 irlncRNAs, which suggesting that irlncRNAs had the promising potential for clinical immunotherapy of GBM.

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study was to construct a novel risk scoring model with prognostic value that could elucidate tumor immune microenvironment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Samples and methods: Data were obtained through The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Univariate Cox analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis, and multivariate Cox analysis were carried out to screen for glycolysis-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that could provide prognostic value. Finally, we established a risk score model to describe the characteristics of the model and verify its prediction accuracy. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of 1, 3, and 5 years of overall survival (OS) were depicted with risk score and some clinical features. ESTIMATE algorithm, single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA), and CIBERSORT analysis were employed to reveal the characteristics of tumor immune microenvironment in HCC. The nomogram was drawn by screening indicators with high prognostic accuracy. The correlation of risk signature with immune infiltration and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy was analyzed. After enrichment of related genes, active behaviors and pathways in high-risk groups were identified and lncRNAs related to poor prognosis were validated in vitro. Finally, the impact of MIR4435-2HG upon ICB treatment was uncovered. Results: After screening through multiple steps, four glycolysis-related lncRNAs were obtained. The risk score constructed with the four lncRNAs was found to significantly correlate with prognosis of samples. From the ROC curve of samples with 1, 3, and 5 years of OS, two indicators were identified with high prognostic accuracy and were used to draw a nomogram. Besides, the risk score significantly correlated with immune score, immune-related signature, infiltrating immune cells (i.e. B cells, etc.), and ICB key molecules (i.e. CTLA4,etc.). Gene enrichment analysis indicated that multiple biological behaviors and pathways were active in the high-risk group. In vitro validation results showed that MIR4435-2HG was highly expressed in the two cell lines, which had a significant impact on the OS of samples. Finally, we corroborated that MIR4435-2HG had intimate relationship with ICB therapy in hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusion: We elucidated the crucial role of risk signature in immune cell infiltration and immunotherapy, which might contribute to clinical strategies and clinical outcome prediction of HCC.

Project description:BackgroundCopper is an indispensably mineral element involved in various metabolic processes and functions in the active sites of many metalloproteins. Copper dysregulation is associated with cancers such as osteosarcoma (OS), the most common primary bone malignancy with invasiveness and metastasis. However, the causality between cuproptosis and OS remains elusive. We aim to identify cuproptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) for osteosarcomatous prognosis, immune microenvironment response, and immunotherapy.MethodsThe Person correlation and differential expression analysis were used to identify differentially expressed cuproptosis-related lncRNAs (CRLs). The univariate, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed to construct the CRL signature. The Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, internal validation, independent prognostic analysis, and nomograph were used to evaluate the prognostic value. The functional enrichment, tumor microenvironment, immunotherapy and chemotherapy response between the two distinct groups were further explored using a series of algorithms. The expression of signature CRLs was verified by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) in OS cell lines.ResultsA novel CRL signature consisting of four CRLs were successfully identified. The K-M survival analysis indicated that the OS patients in the low-risk groups had a better prognosis than that in the high-risk group. Then, the ROC curve and subgroup survival analysis confirmed the prognostic evaluation performance of the signature. Equally, the independent prognostic analysis demonstrated that the CRL signature was an independently predicted factor for OS. Friends analysis determined the hub genes that played a critical role in differentially expressed genes between two distinct risk groups. In addition, the risk score was related to immunity status, immunotherapy response, and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity. Finally, the expression of these signature CRLs detected by RT-qPCR was consistent with the bioinformatic analysis results.ConclusionIn summary, our study confirmed that the novel CRL signature could effectively evaluate prognosis, tumor immune microenvironment, and immunotherapy response in OS. It may benefit for clinical decision-making and provide new insights for personalized therapeutics.
