Abstract
In developed countries, endometrial cancer (EC) is the most prevalent gynecological cancer. ATP5F1D is a subunit of ATP synthase, as well as an important component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC). ETC plays a compelling role in carcinogenesis. To date, little is known about the role of ATP5F1D in EC. We undertook data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) of 20 EC patients, comprising 10 high-grade and 10 low-grade cancer tissues. Biological functions of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed by GO and KEGG. The expression level, clinicopathological features, diagnostic potency, prognostic value, RNA modifications, immune characteristics, and therapy response of ATP5F1D were investigated. In total, 77 DEGs were acquired by DIA analysis, which were closely related to regulating immune response and metabolic pathways. Among the five genes (NDUFB8, SLC26A2, RAF1, ATP5F1D, and GSTM5) involving in reactive oxygen species pathway, ATP5F1D showed the most significant differential expression (2.903-fold change). We found ATP5F1D had a high diagnostic value and was associated with a favorable prognosis in EC patients. After analyzing the RNA modifications of ATP5F1D, revealing a negative regulation between them. Additionally, ATP5F1D was closely related to tumor immune infiltration. Our results suggested T-cell dysfunction and TAM-M2 polarization might be the important mechanisms of ATP5F1D to facilitate tumor immune escape. Noticeably, EC patients with ATP5F1D-high expression had better immune treatment responses and were more sensitive to chemotherapy drugs. ATP5F1D can be used as a biomarker for diagnosis, prognosis, and immune infiltration of EC, and offers a crucial reference for personalized treatment of EC patients.

[PMID: 38339227 PMCID: PMC10854499 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16030475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
As part of a symposium, current and former directors of Immune Monitoring cores and investigative oncologists presented insights into the past, present and future of immune assessment. Dr. Gnjatic presented a classification of immune monitoring technologies ranging from universally applicable to experimental protocols, while emphasizing the need for assay harmonization. Dr. Obeng discussed physiologic differences among CD8 T cells that align with anti-tumor responses. Dr. Lyerly presented the Soldano Ferrone lecture, commemorating the passionate tumor immunologist who inspired many, and covered a timeline of monitoring technology development and its importance to immuno-oncology. Dr. Sonabend presented recent achievements in glioblastoma treatment, accentuating the range of monitoring techniques that allowed him to refine patient selection for clinical trials. Dr. Guevara-Patiño focused on hypoxia within the tumor environment and stressed that T cell viability is not to be confused with functionality. Dr. Butterfield accentuated monitoring of dendritic cell metabolic (dys)function as a determinant for tumor vaccine success. Lectures were interspersed with select abstract presentations. To summarize the concepts, Dr. Maecker from Stanford led an informative forum discussion, pointing towards the future of immune monitoring. Immune monitoring continues to be a guiding light towards effective immunotherapeutic strategies.
