Development of six immune-related lncRNA signature prognostic model for smoking-positive lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Smoking is one of the most hazardous risk factors for the development of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Many survival and prognosis-related biomarkers were discovered using database mining. However, the precision of immune-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) predictions is insufficient. We identified a novel signature to improve the estimate of smoking-related LUAD prognosis.

Methods

The Cancer Genome Atlas database (TCGA) was used to obtain the LUAD lncRNA expression profiles. The smoking-related LUAD cohort was randomly split into discovery and validation cohorts. To determine the risk score, use the LASSO Cox regression technique on the prognostic immune-related lncRNA. The risk signature has been developed.

Results

A total of 643 immune-related lncRNAs were identified as potential candidates for a risk signature. Finally, six immune-related lncRNAs (AL359915.2, AP000695.1, HSPC324, TGFB2-AS1, AC026355.1, and AC002128.2) were identified and used to carry out risk signature, which showed a close association with overall survival in the discovery cohort. We classified patients as high risk or low risk based on a median risk score of 1.0783. In the discovery cohort, overall survival was marginally longer in the low-risk group than in the high-risk category (p = 2.28e08). The area under the curves (AUC) for 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival was 0.67, 0.7, and 0.82, respectively. Furthermore, we successfully validated and combined cohorts using this risk profile. We discovered a strong positive connection between HSPC324 and VIPR1 as a possible novel biomarker for smoking-related LUAD development in our study.

Conclusions

Our research has established a six immune-lncRNA signature that may be used to predict the prognosis of smoking-related LUAD with great accuracy.

Project description:BackgroundSuppressive tumor microenvironment is closely related to the progression and poor prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Novel individual and universal immune-related biomarkers to predict the prognosis and immune landscape of LUAD patients are urgently needed. Two-gene pairing patterns could integrate and utilize various gene expression data.MethodsThe RNA-seq and relevant clinicopathological data of the LUAD project from the TCGA and well-known immune-related genes list from the ImmPort database were obtained. Co-expression analysis followed by an analysis of variance was performed to identify differentially expressed immune-related lncRNA (irlncRNA) (DEirlncRNA) between tumor and normal tissues. Two arbitrary DEirlncRNAs (DEirlncRNAs pair) in a tumor sample underwent pairwise comparison to generate a score (0 or 1). Next, Univariate analysis, Lasso regression and Multivariate analysis were used to screen survival-related DEirlncRNAs pairs and construct a prognostic model. The Acak information standard (AIC) values of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for 3 years are calculated to determine the cut-off point for high- or low-risk score. Finally, we evaluated the relationship between the risk score and overall survival, clinicopathological features, immune landscape, and chemotherapy efficacy.ResultsData of 54 normal and 497 tumor samples of LUAD were enrolled. After a strict screening process, 15 survival-independent-related DEirlncRNA pairs were integrated to construct a prognostic model. The AUC value of the 3-year ROC curve was 0.828. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with low risk lived longer than patients with high risk (p <0.001). Univariate and Multivariate Cox analysis suggested that the risk score was an independent factor of survival. The risk score was negatively associated with most tumor-infiltrating immune cells, immune score, and microenvironment scores. The low-risk group was correlated with increased expression of ICOS. The high-risk group had a connection with lower half inhibitory centration (IC50) of most chemotherapy drugs (e.g., etoposide, paclitaxel, vinorelbine, gemcitabine, and docetaxel) and targeted medicine-erlotinib, but with higher IC50 of methotrexate.ConclusionThe established irlncRNA pairs-based model is a promising prognostic signature for LUAD patients. Furthermore, the prognostic signature has great potential in the evaluation of tumor immune landscape and guiding individualized treatment regimens.

Project description:BackgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) originates mainly from the mucous epithelium and glandular epithelium of the bronchi. It is the most common pathologic subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At present, there is still a lack of clear criteria to predict the efficacy of immunotherapy. The 5-year survival rate for LUAD patients remains low.MethodsAll data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. We used Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) database to obtain immune-related mRNAs. Immune-related lncRNAs were acquired by using the correlation test of the immune-related genes with R version 3.6.3 (Pearson correlation coefficient cor = 0.5, P < 0.05). The TCGA-LUAD dataset was divided into the testing set and the training set randomly. Based on the training set to perform univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, we screened prognostic immune-related lncRNAs and given a risk score to each sample. Samples were divided into the high-risk group and the low-risk group according to the median risk score. By the combination of Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival curve, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) (AUC) curve, the independent risk factor analysis, and the clinical data of the samples, we assessed the accuracy of the risk model. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed on the differentially expressed mRNAs between the high-risk group and the low-risk group. The differentially expressed genes related to immune response between two risk groups were analyzed to evaluate the role of the model in predicting the efficacy and effects of immunotherapy. In order to explain the internal mechanism of the risk model in predicting the efficacy of immunotherapy, we analyzed the differentially expressed genes related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) between two risk groups. We extracted RNA from normal bronchial epithelial cell and LUAD cells and verified the expression level of lncRNAs in the risk model by a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) test. We compared our risk model with other published prognostic signatures with data from an independent cohort. We transfected LUAD cell with siRNA-LINC0253. Western blot analysis was performed to observed change of EMT-related marker in protein level.ResultsThrough univariate Cox regression analysis, 24 immune-related lncRNAs were found to be strongly associated with the survival of the TCGA-LUAD dataset. Utilizing multivariate Cox regression analysis, 10 lncRNAs were selected to establish the risk model. The K-M survival curves and the ROC (AUC) curves proved that the risk model has a fine predictive effect. The GO enrichment analysis indicated that the effect of the differentially expressed genes between high-risk and low-risk groups is mainly involved in immune response and intercellular interaction. The KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that the differentially expressed genes between high-risk and low-risk groups are mainly involved in endocytosis and the MAPK signaling pathway. The expression of genes related to the efficacy of immunotherapy was significantly different between the two groups. A qRT-PCR test verified the expression level of lncRNAs in LUAD cells in the risk model. The AUC of ROC of 5 years in the independent validation dataset showed that this model had superior accuracy. Western blot analysis verified the change of EMT-related marker in protein level.ConclusionThe immune lncRNA risk model established by us could better predict the prognosis of patients with LUAD.
