Abstract
Background: Natural killer (NK) cells are crucial components of the innate immune system that fight tumors and viral infections. Patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) have a poor prognosis, and immunotherapeutic tools play a key role in the treatment of CRC. Methods: Public data on CRC patients was collected from the TCGA and the GEO databases. Tissue data of CRC patients were collected from Guangxi Medical University Affiliated Cancer Hospital. An NK-related prognostic model was developed by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and Cox regression method. Validation data were collected from different clinical subgroups and an external independent validation cohort to verify the model's accuracy. In addition, multiple external independent immunotherapy datasets were collected to further examine the value of NK-related risk scores (NKRS) in the prediction of immunotherapy response. Potential biological functions of key genes were examined by methods of cell proliferation, apoptosis and Western blotting. Results: A novel prognostic model for CRC patients based on NK-related genes was developed and NKRS was generated. There was a significantly poorer prognosis among the high-NKRS group. Based on immune response prediction, patients with low NKRS may be more suitable for immunotherapy and they are more sensitive to immunotherapy. The proliferation rate of CRC cells was significantly reduced and apoptosis of CRC cells was increased after SLC2A3 was knocked down. SLC2A3 was also found to be associated with the TGF-β signaling pathway. Conclusion: NKRS has potential applications for predicting prognostic status and response to immunotherapy in CRC patients. SLC2A3 has potential as a therapeutic target for CRC.

Liu R, Huang B, Shao Y, Cai Y, Liu X, Ren Z. Identification of memory B-cell-associated miRNA signature to establish a prognostic model in gastric adenocarcinoma. J Transl Med 2023; 21:648. [PMID: 37735667 PMCID: PMC10515266 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04366-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Memory B cells and microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the progression of gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC), also known as stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD). However, few studies have investigated the use of memory B-cell-associated miRNAs in predicting the prognosis of STAD. METHODS We identified the marker genes of memory B cells by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and identified the miRNAs associated with memory B cells by constructing an mRNA‒miRNA coexpression network. Then, univariate Cox, random survival forest (RSF), and stepwise multiple Cox regression (StepCox) algorithms were used to identify memory B-cell-associated miRNAs that were significantly related to overall survival (OS). A prognostic risk model was constructed and validated using these miRNAs, and patients were divided into a low-risk group and a high-risk group. In addition, the differences in clinicopathological features, tumour microenvironment, immune blocking therapy, and sensitivity to anticancer drugs in the two groups were analysed. RESULTS Four memory B-cell-associated miRNAs (hsa-mir-145, hsa-mir-125b-2, hsa-mir-100, hsa-mir-221) with significant correlations to OS were identified and used to construct a prognostic model. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis confirmed the feasibility of the model. Kaplan‒Meier (K‒M) survival curve analysis showed that the prognosis was poor in the high-risk group. Comprehensive analysis showed that patients in the high-risk group had higher immune scores, matrix scores, and immune cell infiltration and a poor immune response. In terms of drug screening, we predicted eight drugs with higher sensitivity in the high-risk group, of which CGP-60474 was associated with the greatest sensitivity. CONCLUSIONS In summary, we identified memory B-cell-associated miRNA prognostic features and constructed a novel risk model for STAD based on scRNA-seq data and bulk RNA-seq data. Among patients in the high-risk group, STAD showed the highest sensitivity to CGP-60474. This study provides prognostic insights into individualized and precise treatment for STAD patients.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME), which includes tumor cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, immune cells, and blood vessels, can affect tumor growth and metastasis. Studies have shown that tumor cells, fibroblasts, and macrophages can promote the development of tumors, while T and B cells can inhibit tumor progression. The crosstalk among different cells within the TME needs further study. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in biological processes, including cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. The abnormal expression of certain lncRNAs is correlated with the progression of breast cancer and has been proven as diagnostic markers in various cancers, including breast cancer. In breast cancer, recent studies have shown that tumor cell- and non-tumor cell-derived lncRNAs can affect various facets of tumor progression, including growth, proliferation, and migration of tumor cells. Interestingly, in addition to being regulated by lncRNAs derived from tumor and non-tumor cells, the TME can regulate the expression of lncRNAs in tumor cells, fibroblasts, and macrophages, influencing their phenotype and function. However, the detailed molecular mechanisms of these phenomena remain unclear in the breast cancer microenvironment. Currently, many studies have shown that TME-associated lncRNAs are potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets for breast cancer. Considering that TME and lncRNAs can regulate each other, we summarize the role of lncRNAs in the breast cancer microenvironment and the potential of lncRNAs as valuable diagnostic markers.

Abstract
Background. Aging is recognized as a main tumor risk factor, and thus aging has become a field of interest in the tumor research field. Glioblastoma multiforme represents the most typical primary malignant intracranial tumor, particularly in the elderly. However, the association between aging-related genes (AGs) and GBM prognosis remains unknown. As a result, the primary goal of this study was to determine the association among AGs and the prognosis of GBM. Methods. A total of 307 human AGs were downloaded from the HAGR database, while the expression profiles of GSE4290 and GSE4412 were obtained from the GEO database. Furthermore, data on GBM expression profiles were obtained from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) database. The DEAGs that were differentially expressed among the AG and GBM gene expression profiles derived from GSE4290 were then identified, followed by functional analysis of the DEAGs. The survival-related AGs were then screened using univariate Cox regression analysis , which was used to build and validate a prognostic risk model. Furthermore, the ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT algorithms were utilized to explore the association between the survival-related AGs and the tumor immune microenvironment. Results. In entire, 29 DEAGs were identified in the GSE4290. This was monitored by the construction of the prognosis risk model using four DEAGs from the CGGA training set, including C1QA, CDK1, EFEMP1, and IGFBP2. Next, the risk model was confirmed in the CGGA experiment set and the GSE 4412 dataset. Results showed that C1QA, CDK1, EFEMP1, and IGFBP2 levels were remarkably higher in the high-risk score groups, and they had a good association with immune and stromal scores. Conclusion. A robust prognostic risk model was constructed and validated using four AGs, including C1QA, CDK1, EFEMP1, and IGFBP2, which had a close relationship with the immune microenvironment of GBM. This study offers a new reference to further explore the pathogenesis of GBM and recognize new and more effective GBM treatments.

Abstract
Human diseases are multifactorial processes mainly driven by the intricate interactions of genetic and environmental factors. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a type of non-coding RNAs with more than 200 nucleotides. Multiple studies have demonstrated that the dysregulation of lncRNAs is associated with complex biological as well as pathological processes through various mechanism, especially the regulation of gene transcription and related signal transduction pathways. Moreover, an increasing number of studies have explored lncRNA-based clinical applications in different diseases. For instance, the lncRNA Tumor Protein Translationally Controlled 1 (TPT1) Antisense RNA 1 (TPT1-AS1) was found to be dysregulated in several types of disease and strongly associated with patient prognosis and diverse clinical features. Recent studies have also documented that TPT1-AS1 modulates numerous biological processes through multiple mechanisms, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, invasion, migration, radiosensitivity, chemosensitivity, stemness, and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis. Furthermore, TPT1-AS1 was regarded as a promising biomarker for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of several human diseases. In this review, we summarize the role of TPT1-AS1 in human diseases with the aspects of its expression, relevant clinical characteristics, molecular mechanisms, biological functions, and subsequent clinical applications.

Abstract
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and CD4+ T lymphocytes can inhibit hepatocarcinogenesis and mediate tumor regression. However, few studies have focused on the prognostic power of CD4+ Tconv-related lncRNAs in HCC patients. Method We obtained data from TCGA and GEO databases and identified CD4+Tconv-related lncRNAs in HCC. The risk score was constructed using lasso regression and the model was validated using two validation cohorts. The RS was also assessed in different clinical subgroups, and a nomogram was established to further predict the patients' outcomes. Furthermore, we estimated the immune cell infiltration and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) through TIMER databases and assessed the role of RS in immune checkpoint inhibitors response. Results We constructed a CD4+ Tconv-related lncRNAs risk score, including six lncRNAs (AC012073.1, AL031985.3, LINC01060, MKLN1-AS, MSC-AS1, and TMCC1-AS1), and the RS had good predictive ability in validation cohorts and most clinical subgroups. The RS and the T stage were included in the nomogram with optimum prediction and the model had comparable OS prediction power compared to the AJCC. Patients in the high-risk group had a poor immune response phenotype, with high infiltrations of macrophages, CAFs, and low infiltrations of NK cells. Immunotherapy and chemotherapy response analysis indicated that low-risk group patients had good reactions to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Conclusion We constructed and validated a novel CD4+ Tconv-related lncRNAs RS, with the potential predictive value of HCC patients' survival and immunotherapy response.

Abstract
Introduction It is believed that ovarian cancer (OC) is the most deadly form of gynecological cancer despite its infrequent occurrence, which makes it one of the most salient public health concerns. Clinical and preclinical studies have revealed that intratumoral CD4+ T cells possess cytotoxic capabilities and were capable of directly killing cancer cells. This study aimed to identify the CD4+ conventional T cells-related genes (CD4TGs) with respect to the prognosis in OC. Methods We obtained the transcriptome and clinical data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. CD4TGs were first identified from single-cell datasets, then univariate Cox regression was used to screen prognosis-related genes, LASSO was conducted to remove genes with coefficient zero, and multivariate Cox regression was used to calculate riskscore and to construct the CD4TGs risk signature. Kaplan-Meier analysis, univariate Cox regression, multivariate Cox regression, time-dependent receiver operating characteristics (ROC), decision curve analysis (DCA), nomogram, and calibration were made to verify and evaluate the risk signature. Gene set enrichment analyses (GSEA) in risk groups were conducted to explore the tightly correlated pathways with the risk group. The role of riskscore has been further explored in the tumor microenvironment (TME), immunotherapy, and chemotherapy. A risk signature with 11 CD4TGs in OC was finally established in the TCGA database and furtherly validated in several GEO cohorts. Results High riskscore was significantly associated with a poorer prognosis and proven to be an independent prognostic biomarker by multivariate Cox regression. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year ROC values, DCA curve, nomogram, and calibration results confirmed the excellent prediction power of this model. Compared with the reported risk models, our model showed better performance. The patients were grouped into high-risk and low-risk subgroups according to the riskscore by the median value. The low-risk group patients tended to exhibit a higher immune infiltration, immune-related gene expression and were more sensitive to immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Discussion Collectively, our findings of the prognostic value of CD4TGs in prognosis and immune response, provided valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms and clinical management of OC.

A lactate-related LncRNA model for predicting prognosis, immune landscape and therapeutic response in breast cancer. Front Genet 2022; 13:956246.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) has the highest incidence rate of all cancers globally, with high heterogeneity. Increasing evidence shows that lactate and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) play a critical role in tumor occurrence, maintenance, therapeutic response, and immune microenvironment. We aimed to construct a lactate-related lncRNAs prognostic signature (LRLPS) for BC patients to predict prognosis, tumor microenvironment, and treatment responses. The BC data download from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was the entire cohort, and it was randomly assigned to the training and test cohorts at a 1:1 ratio. Difference analysis and Pearson correlation analysis identified 196 differentially expressed lactate-related lncRNAs (LRLs). The univariate Cox regression analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to construct the LRLPS, which consisted of 7 LRLs. Patients could be assigned into high-risk and low-risk groups based on the medium-risk sore in the training cohort. Then, we performed the Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and univariate and multivariate analyses. The results indicated that the prognosis prediction ability of the LRLPS was excellent, robust, and independent. Furthermore, a nomogram was constructed based on the LRLPS risk score and clinical factors to predict the 3-, 5-, and 10-year survival probability. The GO/KEGG and GSEA indicated that immune-related pathways differed between the two-risk group. CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE, Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion (TIDE), and Immunophenoscore (IPS) showed that low-risk patients had higher levels of immune infiltration and better immunotherapeutic response. The pRRophetic and CellMiner databases indicated that many common chemotherapeutic drugs were more effective for low-risk patients. In conclusion, we developed a novel LRLPS for BC that could predict the prognosis, immune landscape, and treatment response.
