Identification of SHCBP1 as a potential biomarker involving diagnosis, prognosis, and tumor immune microenvironment across multiple cancers.

ABSTRACT: Shc SH2-domain binding protein 1 (SHCBP1), a protein specific binding to SH2 domain of Src homolog and collagen homolog (Shc), takes part in the regulation of various signal transduction pathways, which has been reported to be associated with tumorigenesis and progression. However, the pathological mechanisms are not completely investigated. Thus, this study aimed to comprehensively elucidate the potential functions of SHCBP1 in multiple cancer types. The comprehensive analyses for SHCBP1 in various tumors, including gene expression, diagnosis, prognosis, immune-related features, genetic alteration, and function enrichment, were conducted based on multiple databases and analysis tools. SHCBP1 was upregulated in most types of cancers. The results of qRT-PCR had confirmed that SHCBP1 mRNA was significantly upregulated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) cell lines. Based on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and survival analysis, SHCBP1 was considered as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. Furthermore, SHCBP1 expression was linked with tumor immunity and immunosuppressive microenvironment according to the correlation analysis of SHCBP1 expression with immune cells infiltration, immune checkpoint genes, and immune-related genes (MHC genes, chemokines, and chemokines receptors). Moreover, SHCBP1 expression correlated with tumor mutational burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), and neoantigens. The feature of SHCBP1 mutational landscape in pan-cancer was identified. Finally, we focused on investigating the clinical significance and the potential biological role of SHCBP1 in LUAD. Our study comprehensively uncovered that SHCBP1 could be identified as an immune-related biomarker for cancer diagnosis and prognosis, and a potential therapeutic target for tumor immunotherapy.

Project description:Background:Deubiquitinase OTU domain containing 4 (OTUD4) is initially identified as a K48-specific deubiquitinase and plays an important role in DNA damage repair signaling transduction. However, the expression level, prognostic role, biological function and mechanism of OTUD4 in multiple human cancers are unclear. Methods:GEPIA online (http://gepia.cancer-pku.cn/; The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database) was used to analyze the mRNA expression of OTUD4 in multiple human cancers. Kaplan-Meier plotter (KM plotter) database and TCGA database were used to evaluate the prognostic value of OTUD4 expression in multiple human cancers. MTT, Transwell and 3D culture assays were used to detect the role of OTUD4 in breast, liver and lung cancer cells. The correlation between OTUD4 and apoptosis signaling pathway and AKT signaling pathway was analyzed by Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Results:OTUD4 mRNA expression is significantly downregulated in multiple human cancer tissues. Survival analysis establishes that the downregulation of OTUD4 predicts poor prognosis in many solid tumors, including breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV). Furthermore, overexpression of OTUD4 could inhibit tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion of breast, liver and lung cancer cells through inhibiting the AKT signaling pathway. Conclusion:This study found that OTUD4 may be a potential predictive factor for several human cancers and a tumor suppressor for breast, liver and lung cancer. The overexpression of OTUD4 restrained proliferation, migration and invasion of human breast, liver and lung cancer cells through promoting cancer cells apoptosis and inhibiting AKT signaling pathway. Notably, our results indicated that OTUD4 could be a useful biomarker for the prognosis of human cancers and a potential molecular target for diagnosis and treatment of breast, liver and lung cancer.

Project description:CD73 is essential in promoting tumor growth by prohibiting anti-tumor immunity in many cancer types. While the mechanism remains largely unknown, our paper comprehensively confirmed the onco-immunological characteristics of CD73 in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of pan-cancer. This paper explored the expression pattern, mutational profile, prognostic value, tumor immune infiltration, and response to immunotherapy of CD73 in a continuous cohort of cancers through various computational tools. The co-expression of CD73 on cancer cells, immune cells, and stromal cells in the TME was also detected. Especially, we examined the correlation between CD73 and CD8+ (a marker of T cell), CD68+ (a marker of macrophage), and CD163+ (a marker of M2 macrophage) cells using multiplex immunofluorescence staining of tissue microarrays. CD73 expression is significantly associated with a patient's prognosis and could be a promising predictor of these cancers. High CD73 levels are strongly linked to immune infiltrations, neoantigens, and immune checkpoint expression in the TME. In particular, enrichment signaling pathway analysis demonstrated that CD73 was obviously related to activation pathways of immune cells, including T cells, macrophages, and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Meanwhile, single-cell sequencing algorithms found that CD73 is predominantly co-expressed on cancer cells, CAFs, M2 macrophages, and T cells in several cancers. In addition, we explored the cellular communication among 14 cell types in glioblastoma (GBM) based on CD73 expression. Based on the expression of CD73 as well as macrophage and T cell markers, we predicted the methylation and enrichment pathways of these markers in pan-cancer. Furthermore, a lot of therapeutic molecules sensitive to these markers were predicted. Finally, potential anticancer inhibitors, immunotherapies, and gene therapy responses targeting CD73 were identified from a series of immunotherapy cohorts. CD73 is closely linked to clinical prognosis and immune infiltration in many cancers. Targeting CD73-dependent signaling pathways may be a promising therapeutic strategy for future tumor immunotherapy.
