Establishment and Validation of a Ferroptosis-Related lncRNA Signature for Prognosis Prediction in Lower-Grade Glioma


ABSTRACT:

Background

The prognosis of lower-grade glioma (LGG) is highly variable, and more accurate predictors are still needed. The aim of our study was to explore the prognostic value of ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in LGG and to develop a novel risk signature for predicting survival with LGG.

Methods

We first integrated multiple datasets to screen for prognostic ferroptosis-related lncRNAs in LGG. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis was then utilized to develop a risk signature for prognostic prediction. Based on the results of multivariate Cox analysis, a prognostic nomogram model for LGG was constructed. Finally, functional enrichment analysis, single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA), immunity, and m6A correlation analyses were conducted to explore the possible mechanisms by which these ferroptosis-related lncRNAs affect survival with LGG.

Results

A total of 11 ferroptosis-related lncRNAs related to the prognosis of LGG were identified. Based on prognostic lncRNAs, a risk signature consisting of 8 lncRNAs was constructed and demonstrated good predictive performance in both the training and validation cohorts. Correlation analysis suggested that the risk signature was closely linked to clinical features. The nomogram model we constructed by combining the risk signature and clinical parameters proved to be more accurate in predicting the prognosis of LGG. In addition, there were differences in the levels of immune cell infiltration, immune-related functions, immune checkpoints, and m6A-related gene expression between the high- and low-risk groups.

Conclusion

In summary, our ferroptosis-related lncRNA signature exhibits good performance in predicting the prognosis of LGG. This study may provide useful insight into the treatment of LGG.
