Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), particularly the clear cell subtype (ccRCC), poses a significant global health concern due to its increasing prevalence and resistance to conventional therapies. Early detection of ccRCC remains challenging, resulting in poor patient survival rates. In this study, we employed a bioinformatic approach to identify potential prognostic biomarkers for kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC). By analyzing RNA sequencing data from the TCGA-KIRC project, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with ccRCC were identified. Pathway analysis utilizing the Qiagen Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) tool elucidated key pathways and genes involved in ccRCC dysregulation. Prognostic value assessment was conducted through survival analysis, including Cox univariate proportional hazards (PH) modeling and Kaplan-Meier plotting. This analysis unveiled several promising biomarkers, such as MMP9, PIK3R6, IFNG, and PGF, exhibiting significant associations with overall survival and relapse-free survival in ccRCC patients. Cox multivariate PH analysis, considering gene expression and age at diagnosis, further confirmed the prognostic potential of MMP9, IFNG, and PGF genes. These findings enhance our understanding of ccRCC and provide valuable insights into potential prognostic biomarkers that can aid healthcare professionals in risk stratification and treatment decision-making. The study also establishes a foundation for future research, validation, and clinical translation of the identified prognostic biomarkers, paving the way for personalized approaches in the management of KIRC.

Luo Q, Huang C, Chen M. Comprehensive analysis of N1-methylandenosine regulators and m1A-related mRNAs and lncRNAs as prognostic factors in bladder cancer. Gene 2023; 887:147735. [PMID: 37625558 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Bladder cancer (BC) is a lethal malignancy and recurs frequently. m1A plays a vital role in maintaining the biological functions of non-coding RNAs. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a free website from where transcriptome data of BC were obtained. We chose m1A methylation regulators for this study. Six m1A methylation regulator genes have a higher expression in BC tissue compared to normal tissue. The aberrant expression of those m1A regulator genes was remarkably related to BC prognosis and clinicopathological features. First, m1A-related mRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) were identified. Next, univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression and multivariate Cox regression were performed to get the optimum RNAs for the development of prognostic signatures. Also, a nomogram with T status, lncRNA risk scores and mRNA risk scores was constructed. It revealed an adequate capacity to predict the overall survival of BC cases in the training set as well as in the testing set and in the total TCGA cohort. In conclusion, m1A methylation regulator genes played an important role in predicting the overall survival of BC patients. In addition, m1A-related lncRNAs and mRNAs illustrated underlying mechanisms of tumorigenesis and development of BC.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSP) are a large family of peptide proteins that are widely found in cells. Studies have shown that the expression and function of HSPs in cells are very complex, and they can participate in cellular physiological and pathological processes through multiple pathways. Multiple heat shock proteins are associated with cancer cell growth, proliferation, metastasis, and resistance to anticancer drugs, and they play a key role in cancer development by ensuring the correct folding or degradation of proteins in cancer cells. As research hotspots, HSP90, HSP70 and HSP27 have been extensively studied in cancer so far. However, HSP20, also referred to as HSPB6, as a member of the small heat shock protein family, has been shown to play an important role in the cardiovascular system, but little research has been conducted on HSP20 in cancer. This review summarizes the current cellular functions of HSP20 in different cancer types, as well as its effects on cancer proliferation, progression, prognosis, and its other functions in cancer, to illustrate the close association between HSP20 and cancer. We show that, unlike most HSPs, HSP20 mainly plays an active anticancer role in cancer development, which is expected to provide new ideas and help for cancer diagnosis and treatment and research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is currently the most malignant subtype of breast cancer without effective targeted therapies. DNAJB4 (Dnaj heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member B4) is a member of the human heat shock protein family (Hsp40). The clinical significance of DNAJB4 in breast cancer has been reported in our previous study. However, the biological function of DNAJB4 in TNBC cell apoptosis remains unclear to date. METHODS The expression of DNAJB4 in normal breast cells, breast cancer cells, four-paired TNBC tissues, and adjacent noncancerous tissues was quantified by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot assay. The role of DNAJB4 in TNBC cell apoptosis was investigated using a number of gain- and loss-of-function in vitro and in vivo assays. The underlying molecular mechanisms in TNBC cell apoptosis were elucidated via Western blot assay. RESULTS DNAJB4 expression was significantly downregulated in TNBC tissues and cell lines. DNAJB4 knockdown inhibited TNBC cell apoptosis and promoted tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo, but DNAJB4 overexpression resulted in the opposite. Mechanically, DNAJB4 knockdown inhibited TNBC cell apoptosis through suppression of the Hippo signaling pathway, and the result was reversed after DNAJB4 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS DNAJB4 promotes TNBC cell apoptosis by activating the Hippo signaling pathway. Therefore, DNAJB4 may act as a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for TNBC.

Abstract
Background The Nuclear protein 1 gene was first discovered in acute pancreatitis and functions as an oncogene in cancer progression and drug resistance. However, the role of Nuclear protein 1 in bladder transitional cell carcinoma (BTCC) is still unclear. Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas database and immunohistochemical analysis were adopted to evaluate Nuclear protein 1 expression in BTCC. We applied lentivirus-mediated small-interfering RNA to down-regulate the expression of Nuclear protein 1 in BTCC cell lines. We further performed an Affymetrix microarray and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) to assess the genes and signaling pathways related to Nuclear protein 1. Results We found that Nuclear protein 1 expression was up-regulated in BTCC and positively related to the degree of BTCC malignancy. Compared with Caucasian patients with BTCC, Nuclear protein 1 expression was attenuated in Asian patients. The Affymetrix microarray showed that lipopolysaccharide was the upstream regulatory factor of Nuclear protein 1 in BTCC. The GSEA indicated that Nuclear protein 1 expression was associated with signaling pathways in cancer, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) pathways, and RNA degradation. The expression of Nuclear protein 1 was negatively correlated with PPARG (R = -0.290, P < 0.001), but not with PPARA (R = 0.047, P = 0.344) and PPARD (R = -0.055, P = 0.260). Conclusions The study findings indicate that Nuclear protein 1 is positively associated with the malignancy degree of BTCC and that Nuclear protein 1 expression is negatively correlated with PPARG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The depth of response to platinum in urothelial neoplasm tissues varies greatly. Biomarkers that have practical value in prognosis stratification are increasingly needed. Our study aimed to select a set of BC (bladder cancer)-related genes involved in both platinum resistance and survival, then use these genes to establish the prognostic model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Platinum resistance-related DEGs (differentially expressed genes) and tumorigenesis-related DEGs were identified. Ten most predictive co-DEGs were acquired followed by building a risk score model. Survival analysis and ROC (receiver operating characteristic) plot were used to evaluate the predictive accuracy. Combined with age and tumor stages, a nomogram was generated to create a graphical representation of survival rates at 1-, 3-, 5-, and 8-year in BC patients. The prognostic performance was validated in three independent BC datasets with platinum-based chemotherapy. The potential mechanism was explored by enrichment analysis. RESULTS PPP2R2B, TSPAN7, ATAD3C, SYT15, SAPCD1, AKR1B1, TCHH, AKAP12, AGLN3, and IGF2 were selected for our prognostic model. Patients in high- and low-risk groups exhibited a significant survival difference with HR (hazard ratio) = 2.7 (p < 0.0001). The prognostic nomogram of predicting 3-year OS (overall survival) for BC patients could yield an AUC (area under the curve) of 0.819. In the external validation dataset, the risk score also has a robust predictive ability. CONCLUSION A prognostic model derived from platinum resistance-related genes was constructed, we confirmed its value in predicting platinum-based chemotherapy benefits and overall survival for BC patients. The model might assist in therapeutic decisions for bladder malignancy.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) provokes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in malignant cells and infiltrating immune populations. Sensing and responding to ER stress is coordinated by the unfolded protein response (UPR), an integrated signaling pathway governed by three ER stress sensors: activating transcription factor (ATF6), inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α), and protein kinase R (PKR)-like ER kinase (PERK). Persistent UPR activation modulates malignant progression, tumor growth, metastasis, and protective antitumor immunity. Hence, therapies targeting ER stress signaling can be harnessed to elicit direct tumor killing and concomitant anticancer immunity. We highlight recent findings on the role of the ER stress responses in onco-immunology, with an emphasis on genetic vulnerabilities that render tumors highly sensitive to therapeutic UPR modulation.

Abstract
Background: Immunogenic cell death (ICD) plays an important role in several malignancies. However, the role of ICD-mediated patterns in bladder cancer (BCA) remains unknown. Methods: For assessing the ICD-mediated patterns based on the expression of IRGs, 4 large BCA cohorts were obtained. The ICD-mediated patterns of individual samples were quantified as an ICD score by principal component analysis. The correlations of the ICD-mediated patterns with the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and responses to immunotherapy were comprehensively evaluated. The IRGs with predictive prognostic values were further validated by in vitro loss of function assays. Results: Two distinct ICD-mediated patterns were established, showing distinct clinical features and immune microenvironment features. Although ICD cluster A was associated with a poor prognosis with a high ICD score, it showed an immune activation state with a more favorable response to immunotherapy and treatment that induced ICD. The ICD-related gene, CALR, was significantly upregulated in the T24 BCA cell line relative to the control SV-HUC-1 cells. Knocking down CALR suppressed T24 cell viability and caused ER stress. Conclusion: We identified the existence of distinct ICD-mediated patterns in BCA closely associated with the remodeling of the TIME. Further in-depth examination of ICD-related features is warranted to obtain a broader prospect for therapeutic innovations and improved prognosis of BCA.

Abstract
Background: Osteosarcoma is a highly malignant bone tumor commonly occurring in adolescents with a poor 5-year survival rate. The unfolded protein response (UPR) can alleviate the accumulation of misfolded proteins to maintain homeostasis under endoplasmic reticulum stress. The UPR is linked to the occurrence, progression, and drug resistance of tumors. However, the function of UPR-related genes (UPRRGs) in disease progression and prognosis of osteosarcoma remains unclear. Methods: The mRNA expression profiling and corresponding clinical features of osteosarcoma were acquired from TARGET and GEO databases. Consensus clustering was conducted to confirm different UPRRG subtypes. Subsequently, we evaluated the prognosis and immune status of the different subtypes. Functional analysis of GO, GSEA, and GSVA was used to reveal the molecular mechanism between the subtypes. Finally, four genes (STC2, PREB, TSPYL2, and ATP6V0D1) were screened to construct and validate a risk signature to predict the prognosis of patients with osteosarcoma. Result: We identified two subtypes according to the UPRRG expression patterns. The subgroup with higher immune scores, lower tumor purity, and active immune status was linked to a better prognosis. Meanwhile, functional enrichment revealed that immune-related signaling pathways varied markedly in the two subtypes, suggesting that the UPR might influence the prognosis of osteosarcoma via influencing the immune microenvironment. Moreover, prognostic signature and nomogram models were developed based on UPRRGs, and the results showed that our model has an excellent performance in predicting the prognosis of osteosarcoma. qPCR analysis was also conducted to verify the expression levels of the four genes. Conclusion: We revealed the crucial contribution of UPRRGs in the immune microenvironment and prognostic prediction of osteosarcoma patients and provided new insights for targeted therapy and prognostic assessment of the disease.
