5-methylcytosine RNA methylation regulators affect prognosis and tumor microenvironment in lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Accumulating evidence has shown that 5-methylcytosinec (m5C) RNA methylation plays an essential role in tumorigenesis. However, the roles of m5C regulators in the prognosis, tumor microenvironment (TME), and immunotherapy responses of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have not been fully analyzed.

Methods

Based on 14 m5C RNA regulators, we evaluated the m5C RNA modification patterns in patients with LUAD (n=594) in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Unsupervised clustering analysis was performed to confirm distinct m5C modification patterns. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses were performed to investigate the biological functions of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) among different m5C RNA modification patterns.
