Project description:Gliomas are a group of the most aggressive primary central nervous system tumors with limited treatment options. The abnormal expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is related to the prognosis of glioma. However, the role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-associated lncRNAs in glioma prognosis has not been reported. In this paper, we obtained ER stress-related lncRNAs by co-expression analysis, and then a risk signature composed of 6 ER stress-related lncRNAs was constructed using Cox regression analysis. Glioma samples in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were separated into high- and low-risk groups based on the median risk score. Compared with the low-risk group, patients in the high-risk group had shorter survival times. Additionally, we verified the predictive ability of these candidate lncRNAs in the testing set. Three glioma patient subgroups (cluster 1/2/3) were identified by consensus clustering. We further analysed the abundance of immune-infiltrating cells and the expression levels of immune checkpoint molecules in both three subgroups and two risk groups, respectively. Immunotherapy and anticancer drug response prediction showed that ER stress-related lncRNA risk signature positively correlates with responding to immune checkpoints and chemosensitivity. Functional analysis showed that these gene sets are enriched in the malignant process of tumors. Finally, LINC00519 was chosen for functional experiments. The silence of LINC00519 restrained the migration and invasion of glioma cells. Hence, those results indicated that ER stress-related lncRNA risk signature could be a potential treatment target and a prognosis biomarker for glioma patients.

Project description:Background: Glycolysis is closely related to the occurrence and progression of gastric cancer (GC). Currently, there is no systematic study on using the glycolysis-related long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) as a model for predicting the survival time in patients with GC. Therefore, it was essential to develop a signature for predicting the survival based on glycolysis-related lncRNA in patients with GC. Materials and methods: LncRNA expression profiles, containing 375 stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) samples, were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The co-expression network of lncRNA and glycolysis-related genes was used to identify the glycolysis-related lncRNAs. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and univariate Cox regression analysis were used to detect the glycolysis-related lncRNA with prognostic significance. Then, Bayesian Lasso-logistic and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to screen the glycolysis-related lncRNA with independent prognostic significance and to develop the risk model. Patients were assigned into the low- and high-risk cohorts according to their risk scores. A nomogram model was constructed based on clinical information and risk scores. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was performed to visualize the functional and pathway enrichment analyses of the glycolysis-related lncRNA. Finally, the robustness of the results obtained was verified in an internal validation data set. Results: Seven glycolysis-related lncRNAs (AL353804.1, AC010719.1, TNFRSF10A-AS1, AC005586.1, AL355574.1, AC009948.1, and AL161785.1) were obtained to construct a risk model for prognosis prediction in the STAD patients using Lasso regression and multivariate Cox regression analyses. The risk score was identified as an independent prognostic factor for the patients with STAD [HR = 1.315, 95% CI (1.056-1.130), p < 0.001] via multivariate Cox regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn and the area under curve (AUC) values of 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) were calculated to be 0.691, 0.717, and 0.723 respectively. Similar results were obtained in the validation data set. In addition, seven glycolysis-related lncRNAs were significantly enriched in the classical tumor processes and pathways including cell adhesion, positive regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor, leukocyte transendothelial migration, and JAK_STAT signaling pathway. Conclusion: The prognostic prediction model constructed using seven glycolysis-related lncRNA could be used to predict the prognosis in patients with STAD, which might help clinicians in the clinical treatment for STAD.

Project description:BackgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Therefore, the identification of a novel prediction signature for predicting the prognosis risk and survival outcomes is urgently demanded.MethodsWe integrated a machine-learning frame by combing the Cox regression and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression model to identify the LUAD-related long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) survival biomarkers. Subsequently, the Spearman correlation test was employed to interrogate the relationships between lncRNA signature and tumor immunity and constructed the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network.ResultsHerein, we identified an eight-lncRNA signature (PR-lncRNA signature, NPSR1-AS1, SATB2-AS1, LINC01090, FGF12-AS2, AC005256.1, MAFA-AS1, BFSP2-AS1, and CPC5-AS1), which contributes to predicting LUAD patient's prognosis risk and survival outcomes. The PR-lncRNA signature has also been confirmed as the robust signature in independent datasets. Further parsing of the LUAD tumor immune infiltration showed the PR-lncRNAs were closely associated with the abundance of multiple immune cells infiltration and the expression of MHC molecules. Furthermore, by constructing the PR-lncRNA-related ceRNA network, we interrogated more potential anti-cancer therapy targets.ConclusionlncRNAs, as emerging cancer biomarkers, play an important role in a variety of cancer processes. Identification of PR-lncRNA signatures allows us to better predict patient's survival outcomes and disease risk. Finally, the PR-lncRNA signatures could help us to develop novel LUAD anti-cancer therapeutic strategies.

Project description:The main challenge in treating stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is chemotherapy resistance, which is characterized by changes in the immune microenvironment. Disulfidptosis, a novel form of programmed cell death, is involved in STAD but its mechanism is not fully understood. Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) may play a role in regulating disulfidptosis and influencing the immune microenvironment and chemotherapy resistance in STAD. This study aims to establish disulfidptosis-related lncRNA (DRL) features and explore their significance in the immune microenvironment and chemotherapy resistance in STAD patients. By analyzing RNA sequencing and clinical data from STAD patients and extracting disulfidptosis-related genes, we identified DRLs through co-expression, single-factor and multi-factor Cox regression, and Lasso regression analyses. We also investigated differences in the immune microenvironment, immune function, immune checkpoint gene expression, and chemotherapy resistance between different risk groups using various algorithms. A prognostic risk model consisting of 2 DRLs was constructed, with a strong predictive value for patient survival, outperforming other clinical-pathological factors in predicting 3-year and 5-year survival. Immune-related analysis revealed a strong positive correlation between T cell CD4+ cells and risk score across all algorithms, and higher expression of immune checkpoint genes in the high-risk group. In addition, high-risk patients showed better sensitivity to Erlotinib, Oxaliplatin, and Gefitinib. Furthermore, three novel molecular subtypes of STAD were identified based on the 2-DRLs features, with evaluation of the immune microenvironment and chemotherapy drug sensitivity for each subgroup, which holds significant implications for achieving precise treatment in STAD. Overall, our 2-DRLs prognostic model demonstrates high predictive value for patient survival in STAD, potentially providing new targets for individualized immune and chemical therapy.

Project description:PurposeEndoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has a significant effect on cancer cells. Increasing numbers of studies indicate that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) promote the development of colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), but the relationship between ER stress-related lncRNAs and the prognosis of COAD remains unclear. The aim of the current study was to construct and validate an ER stress-related lncRNA prognostic signature to predict COAD prognoses.MethodsGene expression data and clinical information from the Cancer Genome Atlas and the Gene Expression Omnibus with COAD were downloaded and analyzed. Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression were then used to develop an ER stress-related lncRNA signature. COAD patients were then divided into high-risk and low-risk groups based on the median risk score to analyze prognoses. Tumor mutation burdens (TMBs) and the differences in copy number variations (CNVs) between the two groups were also analyzed. Lastly, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to explore the enrichment pathways and biological processes associated with differentially expressed genes in the high-risk and low-risk groups, and lncRNA expression in the model was validated via quantitative real-time PCR in colon cancer and paracancerous tissues.ResultsA signature including 8 ER stress-related lncRNAs was constructed. COAD prognoses were significantly poorer in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group. There were few differences in TMBs and CNVs between the two groups. In GSEA analysis, in the high-risk group highly expressed genes associated with extracellular matrix pathways were significantly enriched.ConclusionThe 8-ER stress-related lncRNA derived from the present study is a potential indicator of COAD prognosis.

Project description:Recent evidence suggests that aberrant expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) can drive the initiation and progression of malignancies. However, little is known about the prognostic potential of lncRNA. We aimed at constructing a lncRNA-based signature to improve the prognosis prediction of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD). The PAAD samples with clinical information were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and International Cancer Genome Consortium. We established an eight-IRlncRNA signature in a training cohort. The prognostic value of eight-IRlncRNA signature was validated in two distinct cohorts when compared to other four prognostic models. We continued to analyze its independence in subgroups by univariate and multivariate Cox regression. We constructed a nomogram for clinicopathologic features and 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival performance. Moreover, Gene set enrichment analysis and Gene Set Variation Analysis distinguished the typical functions between high- and low-risk groups. In addition, we further observed the different correlations of immune cell between eight IRlncRNAs. Eight-IRlncRNA signature appears to be a good performer to predict the survival capability of PAAD patients, and the nomogram will enable PAAD patients to be more accurately managed in clinical practice.

Project description:Background: As a caspase-independent type of cell death, necroptosis plays a significant role in the initiation, and progression of gastric cancer (GC). Numerous studies have confirmed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are closely related to the prognosis of patients with GC. However, the relationship between necroptosis and lncRNAs in GC remains unclear. Methods: The molecular profiling data (RNA-sequencing and somatic mutation data) and clinical information of patients with stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) were retrieved from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to identify the necroptosis-related lncRNAs (NRLs). Subsequently, univariate Cox regression and LASSO-Cox regression were conducted to establish a 12-NRLs signature in the training set and validate it in the testing set. Finally, the prognostic power of the 12-NRLs signature was appraised via survival analysis, nomogram, Cox regression, clinicopathological characteristics correlation analysis, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Furthermore, correlations between the signature risk score (RS) and immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint molecules, somatic gene mutations, and anticancer drug sensitivity were analyzed. Results: In the present study, a 12-NRLs signature comprising REPIN1-AS1, UBL7-AS1, LINC00460, LINC02773, CHROMR, LINC01094, FLNB-AS1, ITFG1-AS1, LASTR, PINK1-AS, LINC01638, and PVT1 was developed to improve the prognosis prediction of STAD patients. Unsupervised methods, including principal component analysis and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding, confirmed the capability of the present signature to separate samples with RS. Kaplan-Meier and ROC curves revealed that the signature had an acceptable predictive potency in the TCGA training and testing sets. Cox regression and stratified survival analysis indicated that the 12-NRLs signature were risk factors independent of various clinical parameters. Additionally, immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint molecules, somatic gene mutations, and half-inhibitory concentration differed significantly among different risk subtypes, which implied that the signature could assess the clinical efficacy of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Conclusion: This 12-NRLs risk signature may help assess the prognosis and molecular features of patients with STAD and improve treatment modalities, thus can be further applied clinically.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with cancer cells under endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has a poor prognosis. This study is aimed at discovering credible biomarkers for predicting the prognosis of HCC based on ER stress-related genes (ERSRGs). We constructed a novel four-ERSRG prognostic risk model, including PON1, AGR2, SSR2, and TMCC1, through a series of bioinformatic approaches, which can accurately predict survival outcomes in HCC patients. Higher risk scores were linked to later grade, recurrence, advanced TNM stage, later T stage, and HBV infection. In addition, 20 fresh frozen tumors and normal tissues from HCC patients were collected and used to validate the genes expressed in the signature by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemical (IHC) assays. Moreover, we found the ER stress-related signature could reflect the infiltration levels of different immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and forecast the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment. Finally, we created a nomogram incorporating this ER stress-related signature. In conclusion, our constructed four-gene risk model associated with ER stress can accurately predict survival outcomes in HCC patients, and the model's risk score is associated with the poor clinical classification.

Project description:BackgroundStomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), which accounts for approximately 95% of gastric cancer types, is a malignancy cancer with high morbidity and mortality. Tumor angiogenesis plays important roles in the progression and pathogenesis of STAD, in which long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been verified to be crucial for angiogenesis. Our study sought to construct a prognostic signature of angiogenesis-related lncRNAs (ARLncs) to accurately predict the survival time of STAD.MethodsThe RNA-sequencing dataset and corresponding clinical data of STAD were acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). ARLnc sets were obtained from the Ensemble genome database and Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB, Angiogenesis M14493, INTegrin pathway M160). A ARLnc-related prognostic signature was then constructed via univariate Cox and multivariate Cox regression analysis in the training cohort. Survival analysis and Cox regression were performed to assess the performance of the prognostic signature between low- and high-risk groups, which was validated in the validation cohort. Furthermore, a nomogram that combined the clinical pathological characteristics and risk score conducted to predict the overall survival (OS) of STAD. In addition, ARLnc-mRNA coexpression pairs were constructed with Pearson's correlation analysis and visualized to infer the functional annotation of the ARLncs by gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. The expression of four ARLncs in STAD and their correlation with the angiogenesis markers, CD34 and CD105, were also validated by RT-qPCR in a clinical cohort.ResultsA prognostic prediction signature including four ARLncs (PVT1, LINC01315, AC245041.1, and AC037198.1) was identified and constructed. The OS of patients in the high-risk group was significantly lower than that of patients in the low-risk group (p < 0.001). The values of the time-dependent area under the curve (AUC) for the ARLnc signature for 1-, 3-, and 5- year OS were 0.683, 0.739, and 0.618 in the training cohort and 0.671, 0.646, and 0.680 in the validation cohort, respectively. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that the ARLnc signature was an independent prognostic factor for STAD patients (p < 0.001). Furthermore, the nomogram and calibration curve showed accurate prediction of the survival time based on the risk score. In addition, 262 mRNAs were screened for coexpression with four ARLncs, and GO analysis showed that mRNAs were mainly involved in biological processes, including angiogenesis, cell adhesion, wound healing, and extracellular matrix organization. Furthermore, correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between risk score and the expression of the angiogenesis markers, CD34 and CD105, in TCGA datasets and our clinical sample cohort.ConclusionOur study constructed a prognostic signature consisting of four ARLnc genes, which was closely related to the survival of STAD patients, showing high efficacy of the prognostic signature. Thus, the present study provided a novel biomarker and promising therapeutic strategy for patients with STAD.

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide, with a high mortality rate and unfavorable prognosis. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a key regulator of tumour growth, metastasis, and the response to chemotherapy, targeted therapies and immune response. It acts via responding to misfolded proteins and triggering abnormal activation of ER stress sensors and downstream signalling pathways. Notably, the expression patterns of ER-stress-related-genes (ERSRGs) are indicative of survival outcomes, especially in the context of immune infiltration. Through consensus clustering of prognosis-associated ERSRGs, we delineated two distinct LUAD subtypes: Cluster 1 and Cluster 2. Comprehensive analyses revealed significant disparities between these subtypes in terms of prognosis, immune cell infiltration, and tumor progression. Leveraging the robustness of LASSO regression and Multivariate stepwise regression, we constructed and validated an ER Stress-associated risk signature for LUAD. This signature underwent assessments for its prognostic value, correlation with clinical attributes, and interaction within the tumour immune microenvironment. By integrating this signature with multivariate cox analysis of distinct pathological stages, we devised an enhanced nomogram, validated through various statistical metrics, with an area under the curve for overall survival at 1, 3, and 5 years post-diagnosis being 0.79, 0.80, and 0.81, respectively. In conclusion, our findings introduce a composite signature of 11 pivotal ERSRGs, holding promise as a potent prognostic tool for LUAD, and offering insights for immunotherapeutic and targeted intervention strategies.
