GLIS1, Correlated with Immune Infiltrates, Is a Potential Prognostic Biomarker in Prostate Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a prevalent malignant disease and the primary reason for cancer-related mortality among men globally. GLIS1 (GLIS family zinc finger 1) is a key regulator in various pathologies. However, the expression pattern, clinical relevance, and immunomodulatory function of GLIS1 in PCa remain unclear. In this study, GLIS1 was discovered to serve as a key gene in PCa by integrating mRNA and miRNA expression profiles from GEO database. We systematically explored the expression and prognostic values of GLIS1 in cancers using multiple databases. Additionally, we examined the functions of GLIS1 and the relationship between GLIS1 expression levels and immune infiltration in PCa. Results showed that GLIS1 was differentially expressed between normal and tumor tissues in various cancer types and was significantly low-expressed in PCa. Low GLIS1 expression was associated with poor PCa prognosis. GLIS1 was also involved in the activation, proliferation, differentiation, and migration of immune cells, and its expression showed a positive correlation with the infiltration of various immune cells. Moreover, GLIS1 expression was positively associated with various chemokines/chemokine receptors, indicating the involvement in regulating immune cell migration. In summary, GLIS1 is a potential prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target to modulate anti-tumor immune response in PCa.

Project description:Background: UBASH3B (STS1) is an important gene that negatively regulates T-cell receptor signaling in activated T-lymphocytes that involved in cancers. However, the function of UBASH3B in prostate cancer (PCa) and the correlation between UBASH3B and tumor-infiltrating immune cells still remain unclear. Methods: Real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry were applied to detect mRNA and protein expression of UBASH3B in PCa patients and benign prostate hyperplasia patients (BPH). Clinical features of patients with PCa were recorded and Kaplan Meier curve was subsequently plotted. Based on mRNA expression of UBASH3B, patients with PCa from TCGA database were divided into low-UBASH3B-expression group and high-UBASH3B-expression group for construct lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network and analyzing GO and KEGG pathways. Single gene analysis method was performed by using GSEA to interpret gene expression data in PCa. The PPI network was constructed using STRING and the correlation between UBASH3B and tumor-infiltrating immune cells was analyzed by TIMER and CIBERSORT. Results: The mRNA and protein expression of UBASH3B were upregulated in PCa. The abundant expression of UBASH3B is associated with poor prognosis in PCa. The subnetwork of UBASH3B contains three lncRNAs (MIAT, LINC01297, MYLK-AS1) and four miRNAs (hsa-miR-200a-3p, hsa-miR-455-5p, hsa-miR-192-5p, hsamiR- 215-5P). The mRNA expression of UBASH3B was involved in 28 KEGG pathways. GSEA analysis showed that 18 hallmark gene sets were significantly enriched in high-UBASH3B-expression, whereas 1 gene set was enriched in low-UBASH3B-expression. PPI network revealed a tightly interaction between UBASH3B and LCP2 (an immune related gene). TIMER and CIBERSORT database indicated that UBASH3B was correlated with 11 types of tumor-infiltrating immune cells (naïve B cell, memory B cells, resting CD4+ memory T cell, activated CD4+ memory T cell, regulatory T cell, activated NK cell, M2 macrophages, resting dendritic cells, activated dendritic cells, resting mast cells, neutrophils). Conclusions: In conclusion, UBASH3B may be a novel potential prognostic biomarker and is associated with tumor-infiltrating immune cells in tumor microenvironment, suggesting UBASH3B as a potential target for future treatment of PCa.
