A Novel M7G-Related MicroRNAs Risk Signature Predicts the Prognosis and Tumor Microenvironment of Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Background: M7G modification is extremely vital for the development of many cancers, especially tumor immunity. M7G modification is a novel functional regulator of miRNA, and the researches on m7G-related miRNAs in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) are still insufficient. This research aims to establish a risk signature on the foundation of m7G-associated miRNAs, which can precisely forecast the prognosis of KIRC patients. Methods: Transcriptome data and clinical data used in this study come from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Our team utilized univariable Cox, Lasso and multivariable Cox analyses to construct a m7G-associated miRNAs risk signature that can forecast the prognosis of KIRC patients. Kaplan-Meier method, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the independent analysis of risk signatures were employed to verify the predictability and accuracy of the risk signature. Subsequently, based on CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE and ssGSEA algorithms, we speculated the potential impact of the proposed risk signature on tumor immune microenvironment. Ultimately, by virtue of the risk signature and tumor immunity, the hub genes affecting the prognosis of KIRC patients were screened out. Results: Our team established and verified a prognostic signature comprising 7 m7G-associated miRNAs (miR-342-3p, miR-221-3p, miR-222-3p, miR-1277-3p, miR-6718-5p, miR-1251-5p, and miR-486-5p). The results of the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that the prognosis of KIRC sufferers in the high-risk group was often unsatisfactory. The accuracy of the prediction ability of the risk signature was verified by calculating the area under the ROC curve. Univariate-multivariate Cox analyses further showed that this risk signature could be utilized as an independent prognosis-related biomarker for KIRC sufferers. The results of the immune analysis revealed that remarkable diversities existed in immune status and tumor microenvironment between high-risk and low-risk groups. On the foundation of the proposed risk signature and other clinical factors, a nomogram was established to quantitatively forecast the survival of KIRC sufferers at 1, 3 and 5 years. Conclusion: Based on m7G-related miRNAs, a risk signature was successfully constructed, which could precisely forecast the prognosis of sufferers and guide personalized immunotherapy for KIRC patients.

Project description:Background: Oxidative stress is related to oncogenic transformation in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC). We intended to identify a prognostic antioxidant gene signature and investigate its relationship with immune infiltration in KIRC. Methods: With the support of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we researched the gene expression and clinical data of KIRC patients. Antioxidant related genes with significant differences in expression between KIRC and normal samples were then identified. Through univariate and multivariate Cox analysis, a prognostic gene model was established and all patients were divided into high- and low-risk subgroups. Single sample gene set enrichment analysis was adopted to analyze the immune infiltration, HLA expression, and immune checkpoint genes in different risk groups. Finally, the prognostic nomogram model was established and evaluated. Results: We identified six antioxidant genes significantly correlated with the outcome of KIRC patients as independent predictors, namely DPEP1 (HR = 0.97, P < 0.05), GSTM3 (HR = 0.97, P < 0.05), IYD (HR = 0.33, P < 0.05), KDM3B (HR = 0.96, P < 0.05), PRDX2 (HR = 0.99, P < 0.05), and PRXL2A (HR = 0.96, P < 0.05). The high- and low-risk subgroups of KIRC patients were grouped according to the six-gene signature. Patients with higher risk scores had poorer prognosis, more advanced grade and stage, and more abundance of M0 macrophages, regulatory T cells, and follicular helper T cells. There were statistically significant differences in HLA and checkpoint gene expression between the two risk subgroups. The performance of the nomogram was favorable (concordance index = 0.766) and reliably predicted the 3-year (AUC = 0.792) and 5-year (AUC = 0.766) survival of patients with KIRC. Conclusion: The novel six antioxidant related gene signature could effectively forecast the prognosis of patients with KIRC, supply insights into the interaction between cellular antioxidant mechanisms and cancer, and is an innovative tool for selecting potential patients and targets for immunotherapy.
