[PMID: 37940859 PMCID: PMC10634106 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-023-11589-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ferroptosis is a novel form of regulated cell death that is different from other forms, which has an important role in tumor growth inhibition. The purpose of this study was to construct and validate a prognostic signature related to ferroptosis in chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (ChRCC) and to explore its role in immune cell infiltration and systemic therapy. METHODS The gene expression profiles of ChRCC patients obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database were used to identify differentially expressed prognostic ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) by univariate Cox proportional hazards analyses. Ferroptosis molecular subtypes were obtained by consensus clustering analysis. The FRG-based signature in the training set was established by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis and verified in the testing set. The association between molecular subtypes and the prognostic signature and immune microenvironment was explored to predict responses to immunotherapy. Immunohistochemistry was used to verify expression of the FRG-based signature externally. RESULTS ChRCC patients were divided into two FRG subtypes. Two FRGs (TFRC and SLC7A11) were identified to construct the prognostic signature. The high-risk group and cluster 2 had worse overall survival than the low-risk group and cluster 1, respectively. The low-risk group and cluster 1 had higher levels of immune cell infiltration and expression of MHC and immune checkpoint molecules than the high-risk group and cluster 2. The risk score was a predictor of overall survival and had a good predictive ability, which was verified in the testing set and evaluated by ROC and calibration curves. The high-risk group had a higher tumor mutation burden. The different sensitivities of targeted drugs in patients with different risks were evaluated. External immunohistochemical analysis showed that TFRC and SLC7A11 were highly expressed in tumor tissues compared with para-cancer normal tissues, and the expression level was significantly associated with a more advanced stage and worse cancer-specific survival. CONCLUSIONS An FRG signature was identified and validated to predict the clinicopathological features and prognosis of ChRCC. A significant association between the signature and immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint expression, and drug response is helpful to guide comprehensive treatment of ChRCC.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a serious threat to people's health due to its rapid progression, and patients easily develop resistance to targeted therapy. The absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) is a receptor protein that has recently been proposed to play an important role in various diseases. In this study, AIM2 was identified as a new biomarker of RCC and promoted RCC progression and sunitinib resistance in an inflammasome-independent manner. Mechanistically, AIM2 promoted FOXO3a phosphorylation and proteasome degradation, thereby reducing its transcriptional effect on ACSL4 and inhibiting ferroptosis. In summary, AIM2 promoted RCC progression and sunitinib resistance through FOXO3a-ACSL4 axis-regulated ferroptosis, which could provide new ideas and therapeutic targets for RCC diagnosis and treatment.

Identification and Validation of a Novel Ferroptotic Prognostic Genes-Based Signature of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14194690. [PMID: 36230613 PMCID: PMC9562262 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14194690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is one of the leading types of kidney malignancy and is closely related to ferroptosis that is an iron-dependent regulated cell death with lipid peroxide accumulation. A signature of nine ferroptotic genes was identified as an independent prognostic factor via construction in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and validation in the ArrayExpress database. This signature could successfully divide patients into low- and high-risk groups to predict survival rate. Compared with the other eight genes, glutaminase 2 (GLS2) played a crucial role during erastin-induced ferroptosis in ACHN and Caki-1 cells. It was discovered for the first time that GLS2 might be a ferroptotic suppressor in ccRCC. Abstract Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), as one of the primary urological malignant neoplasms, shows poor survival, and the leading pathological type of RCC is clear cell RCC (ccRCC). Differing from other cell deaths (such as apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy), ferroptosis is characterized by iron-dependence, polyunsaturated fatty acid oxidization, and lipid peroxide accumulation. We analyzed the ferroptosis database (FerrDb V2), Gene Expression Omnibus database, The Cancer Genome Atlas database, and the ArrayExpress database. Nine genes that were differentially expressed and related to prognosis were involved in the ferroptotic prognostic model via the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression analysis, which was established in ccRCC patients from the kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) cohort in TCGA database, and validated in ccRCC patients from the E-MTAB-1980 cohort in the ArrayExpress database. The signature could be an independent prognostic factor for ccRCC, and high-risk patients showed worse overall survival. The Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes were utilized to investigate the potential mechanisms. The nine genes in ccRCC cells with erastin or RSL3 treatment were validated to find the crucial gene. The glutaminase 2 (GLS2) gene was upregulated during ferroptosis in ccRCC cells, and cells with GLS2 shRNA displayed lower survival, a lower glutathione level, and a high lipid peroxide level, which illustrated that GLS2 might be a ferroptotic suppressor in ccRCC.

Functional deficiency of succinate dehydrogenase promotes tumorigenesis and development of clear cell renal cell carcinoma through weakening of ferroptosis. Bioengineered 2022; 13:11187-11207.

Abstract
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of renal carcinomas, with high mortality and poor prognoses worldwide. Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) consists of four nuclear-encoded subunits and it is the only complex involved in both the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Previous studies have shown decreased SDH activity in ccRCC. However, the role and underlying molecular mechanisms of SDH in ccRCC initiation and development remain unclear. In the present study, pan-cancer analysis of SDH gene expression was analyzed and the relationship between SDH gene expression and clinicopathological parameters was assessed using different databases. cBioPortal, UACLAN, and Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) were subsequently utilized to analyze genetic alterations, methylation, and immune cell infiltration of SDH genes in ccRCC patients. We found SDHs were significantly downregulated in ccRCC tissues and correlated with ccRCC progression. Increased methylation and high SDH promoter mutation rates may be the cause of reduced expression of SDHs in ccRCC. Moreover, the interaction network showed that SDH genes were correlated with ferroptosis-related genes. We further demonstrated that SDH inhibition dampened oxidative phosphorylation, reduced ferroptotic events, and restored ferroptotic cell death, characterized by eliminated mitochondrial ROS levels, decreased cellular ROS and diminished peroxide accumulation. Collectively, this study provides new insights into the regulatory role of SDH in the carcinogenesis and progression of ccRCC, introducing a potential target for advanced antitumor therapy through ferroptosis.

Identification of co-expression hub genes for ferroptosis in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma based on weighted gene co-expression network analysis and The Cancer Genome Atlas clinical data. Sci Rep 2022; 12:4821. [PMID: 35314744 PMCID: PMC8938444 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-08950-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is one of the most common tumors worldwide and has a high mortality rate. Ferroptosis is a major mechanism of tumor occurrence and development, as well as important for prognosis and treatment of KIRC. Here, we conducted bioinformatics analysis to identify KIRC hub genes that target ferroptosis. By Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), 11 co-expression-related genes were screened out. According to Kaplan Meier's survival analysis of the data from the gene expression profile interactive analysis database, it was identified that the expression levels of two genes, PROM2 and PLIN2, are respectively related to prognosis. In conclusion, our findings indicate that PROM2 and PLIN2 may be effective new targets for the treatment and prognosis of KIRC.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a recently discovered regulated programmed cell death, is associated with tumorigenesis and progression in glioblastoma. Based on widely recognized ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs), the regulation of ferroptosis patterns and corresponding characteristics of immune infiltration of 516 GBM samples with GSE13041, TCGA-GBM, and CGGA-325 were comprehensively analyzed. Here, we revealed the expression, mutations, and CNV of FRGs in GBM. We identified three distinct regulation patterns of ferroptosis and found the hub genes of immunity and stemness among DEGs in three patterns. A prognostic model was constructed based on five FRGs and verified at the mRNA and protein level. The risk score can not only predict the prognosis but also the degree of immune infiltration and ICB responsiveness by functional annotation. The overall assessment of FRGs in GBM patients will guide the direction of improved research and develop new prognostic prediction tools.
