Identification of metabolism-related genes for predicting peritoneal metastasis in patients with gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The reprogramming of metabolism is an important factor in the metastatic process of cancer. In our study, we intended to investigate the predictive value of metabolism-related genes (MRGs) in recurrent gastric cancer (GC) patients with peritoneal metastasis.

Methods

The sequencing data of mRNA of GC patients were obtained from Asian Cancer Research Group (ACRG) and the GEO databases (GSE53276). The differentially expressed MRGs (DE-MRGs) between a cell line without peritoneal metastasis (HSC60) and one with peritoneal metastasis (60As6) were analyzed with the Limma package. According to the LASSO regression, eight MRGs were identified as crucially related to peritoneal seeding recurrence in patients. Then, disease free survival related genes were screened using Cox regression, and a promising prognostic model was constructed based on 8 MRGs. We trained and verified it in two independent cohort.

Results

We confirmed 713 DE-MRGs and the enriched pathways. Pathway analysis found that the MRG-related pathways were related to tumor metabolism development. With the help of Kaplan-Meier analysis, we found that the group with higher risk scores had worse rates of peritoneal seeding recurrence than the group with lower scores in the cohorts.

Conclusions

This study developed an eight-gene signature correlated with metabolism that could predict peritoneal seeding recurrence for GC patients. This signature could be a promising prognostic model, providing better strategy in treatment.

Project description:BackgroundGastric cancer peritoneal metastasis (GCPM) is an important cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a key role in the regulation of GCPM, but the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated.MethodsHigh-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed on four groups of clinical specimens (non-metastatic gastric cancer primary tumor, adjacent normal gastric mucosal tissue, gastric cancer primary tumor with peritoneal metastasis and adjacent normal gastric mucosal tissue). After sequencing, many lncRNAs and mRNAs were screened for further Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA). GCPM-related hub lncRNAs and genes were identified by cytoHubba and validated by Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. GO, KEGG and GSEA showed GCPM-related pathways. Correlation analysis revealed the potential relationship between hub lncRNAs and genes.ResultsBy analyzing lncRNA expression data by WGCNA, we found that blue module was highly correlated with GCPM (r = 0.44, p = 0.04) and six lncRNAs involved in this module (DNM3OS, lnc-MFAP2-53, lnc-PPIAL4C-4, lnc-RFNG-1, lnc-TRIM28-14 and lnc-YARS2-4) were identified. We then performed qRT-PCR validation of gastric cancer specimens and found that the expression of lnc-RFNG-1 and lnc-TRIM28-14 was significantly increased in gastric cancer tissues with peritoneal metastasis. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed shorter overall survival time (OS) for gastric cancer patients with high expression of lnc-TRIM28-14. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis showed that lnc-TRIM28-14 could improve the sensitivity and specificity of GCPM diagnosis. In addition, we identified three key mRNAs (CD93, COL3A1 and COL4A1) associated with gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis through WGCNA analysis and clinical specimen validation. Moreover, there was a positive correlation between lnc-TRIM28-14 and the expression of CD93 and COL4A1 in gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis, suggesting a regulatory relationship between them. Subsequent GO, KEGG and GSEA analysis suggested that ECM-receptor interaction and focal adhesion were the hub pathways of GCPM.ConclusionIn summary, lnc-RFNG-1, lnc-TRIM28-14, CD93, COL3A1 and COL4A1 could be novel tumor biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for GCPM.

Project description:Ovarian metastasis (OM) results in poor survival of gastric cancer (GC) patients. While immunotherapy has emerged as a promising approach for late-stage GC, validated immune-related prognostic signatures still remain in need. In this study, we constructed an ovarian metastasis- and immune-related prognostic signature (OMIRPS), characterized the molecular and immune features of OMIRPS-categorized subgroups and predicted their potential response to immunotherapy. Three individual cohorts were used to construct and evaluate OMIRPS: RNA-seq of matched primary GC and OM from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (FUSCC) (discovery cohort, n = 4), The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (training cohort, n = 544) and GSE84437 (validation cohort, n = 433). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified between primary GC and OM and immune-related genes (IRGs) from the ImmPort and InnateDB databases were used to identify immune-related prognostic hub genes, which were further used to construct OMIRPS by using LASSO regression analysis. Prognosis, molecular characteristics, immune features, and differential immunotherapy efficacy between different OMIRPS subgroups were analyzed. Functional analyses of DEGs revealed the significance of immune-related signatures and pathways in the OM. Immune-related prognostic hub genes including TNFRSF18, CARD11, BCL11B, NRP1, BNIP3L, and ATF3 were utilized to construct OMIRPS, which was identified as an independent prognostic factor. Comprehensive analyses unveiled the distinctive molecular and immune characteristics of OMIRPS-high and -low subgroup in regard to enriched pathways, mutation rate, tumor mutation burden, microsatellite instability status, infiltrated immune cell, immune exclusion score, and the prediction of immunotherapy efficacy. Additionally, OMIRPS was associated with Immune Subtypes with borderline significance. RNA-seq of paired primary and ovarian metastatic tumors unveiled the significance of immune-related pathways and tumor immune microenvironment in OM. OMIRPS served as a promising biomarker to predict the prognosis of GC patients and distinguish the molecular features, immune characteristics, and efficacy of immunotherapy between different subgroups.
