Identification of a Novel Eight-Gene Risk Model for Predicting Survival in Glioblastoma: A Comprehensive Bioinformatic Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most progressive and prevalent cancers of the central nervous system. Identifying genetic markers is therefore crucial to predict prognosis and enhance treatment effectiveness in GBM. To this end, we obtained gene expression data of GBM from TCGA and GEO datasets and identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which were overlapped and used for survival analysis with univariate Cox regression. Next, the genes' biological significance and potential as immunotherapy candidates were examined using functional enrichment and immune infiltration analysis. Eight prognostic-related DEGs in GBM were identified, namely CRNDE, NRXN3, POPDC3, PTPRN, PTPRN2, SLC46A2, TIMP1, and TNFSF9. The derived risk model showed robustness in identifying patient subgroups with significantly poorer overall survival, as well as those with distinct GBM molecular subtypes and MGMT status. Furthermore, several correlations between the expression of the prognostic genes and immune infiltration cells were discovered. Overall, we propose a survival-derived risk score that can provide prognostic significance and guide therapeutic strategies for patients with GBM.

Project description:Background: Immunotherapy has limited effectiveness in ovarian cancer (OC) patients, highlighting the need for reliable biomarkers to predict the effectiveness of these treatments. The C-X-C motif chemokine ligands (CXCLs) have been shown to be associated with survival outcomes and immunotherapy efficacy in cancer patients. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the predictive value of 16 CXCLs in OC patients. Methods: We analyzed RNA-seq data from The Cancer Genome Atlas, Gene Expression Omnibus, and UCSC Xena database and conducted survival analysis. Consensus cluster analysis was used to group patients into distinct clusters based on their expression patterns. Biological pathway alterations and immune infiltration patterns were examined across these clusters using gene set variation analysis and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis. We also developed a CXCL scoring model using principal component analysis and evaluated its effectiveness in predicting immunotherapy response by assessing tumor microenvironment cell infiltration, tumor mutational burden estimation, PD-L1/CTLA4 expression, and immunophenoscore analysis (IPS). Results: Most CXCL family genes were overexpressed in OC tissues compared to normal ovarian tissues. Patients were grouped into three distinct CXCL clusters based on their CXCL expression pattern. Additionally, using differentially expressed genes among the CXCL clusters, patients could also be grouped into three gene clusters. The CXCL and gene subtypes effectively predicted survival and immune cell infiltration levels for OC patients. Furthermore, patients with high CXCL scores had significantly better survival outcomes, higher levels of immune cell infiltration, higher IPS, and higher expression of PD-L1/CTLA4 than those with low CXCL scores. Conclusion: The CXCL score has the potential to be a promising biomarker to guide immunotherapy in individual OC patients and predict their clinical outcomes and immunotherapy responses.
