Development and Validation of CXCR4 Nomogram-Based Immune Infiltration/Tumor Inflammation in Primary Glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly malignant and aggressive tumor with poor prognosis. Therefore, the discovery of new prognostic molecular markers is of great significance for clinical prognosis. The CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR) members play a key regulatory role in many cancers. In this study, we explore the clinical value and application of the CXCR members in primary glioblastoma. Two GBM datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and The China Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) databases were used to explore the relationship between differential expression of CXCRs and GBM subtypes as well as immune infiltration. C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) was screened as an independent prognostic factor, and a nomogram and risk prediction model were developed and tested in the CGGA database using the TCGA database. Receiver operating curve (ROC) and decision curve analysis (DCA) found good accuracy and net benefit of the models. The correlation of CXCR4 with immune infiltration and tumor was analyzed using CancerSEA and TIMER. In in vitro experiments, we found that CXCR4 was significantly overexpressed in glioblastoma and was closely related to the inflammatory response of U251/U87 cells. CXCR4 is an excellent independent prognostic factor for glioblastoma and positively correlates with tumor inflammation.

Project description:Background: Notch receptors (Notch 1/2/3/4), the critical effectors of the Notch pathway, participate in the tumorigenesis and progression of many malignancies. However, the clinical roles of Notch receptors in primary glioblastoma (GBM) have not been fully elucidated. Methods: The genetic alteration-related prognostic values of Notch receptors were determined in the GBM dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Two GBM datasets from TCGA and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) were used to explore the differential expression between Notch receptors and IDH mutation status, and GBM subtypes. The biological functions of Notch Receptors were explored by Gene Ontology and KEGG analysis. The expression and prognostic significance of Notch receptors were determined in the TCGA and CGGA datasets and further validated in a clinical GBM cohort by immunostaining. A Notch3-based nomogram/predictive risk model was constructed in the TCGA dataset and validated in the CGGA dataset. The model performance was evaluated by receiver operating curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analyses. The Notch3-related phenotypes were analyzed via CancerSEA and TIMER. The proliferative role of Notch3 in GBM was validated in U251/U87 glioma cells by Western blot and immunostaining. Results: Notch receptors with genetic alterations were associated with poor survival of GBM patients. Notch receptors were all upregulated in GBM of TCGA and CGGA databases and closely related to the regulation of transcription, protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity, lysine N-methyltransferase activity, and focal adhesion. Notch receptors were associated with Classical, Mesenchymal, and Proneural subtypes. Notch1 and Notch3 were closely correlated with IDH mutation status and G-CIMP subtype. Notch receptors displayed the differential expression at the protein level and Notch3 showed a prognostic significance in a clinical GBM cohort. Notch3 presented an independent prognostic role for primary GBM (IDH1 mutant/wildtype). A Notch3-based predictive risk model presented favorable accuracy, reliability, and net benefits for predicting the survival of GBM patients (IDH1 mutant/wildtype and IDH1 wildtype). Notch3 was closely related to immune infiltration (macrophages, CD4+ T cells, and dendritic cells) and tumor proliferation. Conclusion: Notch3-based nomogram served as a practical tool for anticipating the survival of GBM patients, which was related to immune-cell infiltration and tumor proliferation.

Project description:Background Despite receiving standard treatment, the prognosis of glioblastoma (GBM) patients is still poor. Considering the heterogeneity of each patient, it is imperative to identify reliable risk model that can effectively predict the prognosis of each GBM patient to guide the personalized treatment. Methods Transcriptomic gene expression profiles and corresponding clinical data of GBM patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) databases. Inflammatory response-related genes were extracted from Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) website. Univariate Cox regression analysis was used for prognosis-related inflammatory genes (P<0.05). A polygenic prognostic risk model was constructed using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression analysis. Validation was performed through CGGA cohort. Overall survival (OS) was compared by Kaplan-Meier analysis. A nomogram was plotted to accurately predict the prognosis for each patient. GSEA was used for the pathway enrichment analysis. The single sample GSEA (ssGSEA) algorithm was implemented to conduct the immune infiltration analysis. The potential role of oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) in GBM was investigated through the in vitro experiment. Results A prognostic risk model consisting of 4 genes (PTPRN, OSMR, MYD88, and EFEMP2) was developed. GBM patients in the high-risk group had worse OS. The time-dependent ROC curves showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.782, 0.765, and 0.784 for 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival in TCGA cohort, while the AUC in the CGGA cohort was 0.589, 0.684, and 0.785 at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The risk score, primary-recurrent-secondary (PRS) type, and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation could predict the prognosis of GBM patients well. The nomogram accurately predicted the 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS for each patient. Immune cell infiltration was associated with the risk score and the model could predict immunotherapy responsiveness. The expression of the prognostic gene was correlated with the sensitivity to antitumor drugs. Interference of OSMR inhibited proliferation and migration and promoted apoptosis of GBM cells. Conclusions The prognostic model based on 4 inflammatory response-related genes had reliable predictive power to effectively predict clinical outcome in GBM patients and provided the guide for the personalized treatment.
