Abstract
It was imperative to identify latent biomarkers pertinent to malignancies, given the pivotal role targeted molecular therapies play in tumor treatment investigations. This study aimed to assess the validity of HAUS1 as an indicator for survival prognosis and immune responses in prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD) via single-cell and bulk RNA-sequencing. Related data on HAUS1 expression in PRAD were obtained from online databases, followed by comprehensive analyses to delineate its associations with survival prognosis, implicated pathways, and immune responses. Besides, the expression pattern of HAUS1 in PRAD was also verified in vitro, by using qRT-PCR, Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry. We found HAUS1 was downregulated in PRAD compared with normal tissues, as verified in vitro by qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry (p < 0.05). Single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis indicated that HAUS1 had relatively higher expressions in B cells, Mono/Macro cells, and Endothelial cells compared with other cell types. Cox regression analysis revealed HAUS1 could serve as an independent indicator for the overall survival prognosis of PRAD (p < 0.05). Spearman correlation analyses revealed HAUS1 was closely related to the tumor microenvironment, immune cell infiltration levels, immune checkpoints, and immune cell pathways (p < 0.05). Furthermore, HAUS1 expression was found to be closely related to the immunotherapeutic response of patients receiving clinical intervention (p < 0.05). Collectively, our findings underscored the significant role of HAUS1 in PRAD prognosis and immune response, thereby presenting a novel and promising avenue for investigating the clinical utility of immunotherapy in PRAD.
期刊介绍：
Each month, the journal publishes easy-to-assimilate, up-to-the minute reports of experimental findings by researchers using a wide range of the latest techniques. Promoting the aims of cell biologists worldwide, papers reporting on structure and function - especially where they relate to the physiology of the whole cell - are strongly encouraged. Molecular biology is welcome, as long as articles report findings that are seen in the wider context of cell biology. In covering all areas of the cell, the journal is both appealing and accessible to a broad audience. Authors whose papers do not appeal to cell biologists in general because their topic is too specialized (e.g. infectious microbes, protozoology) are recommended to send them to more relevant journals. Papers reporting whole animal studies or work more suited to a medical journal, e.g. histopathological studies or clinical immunology, are unlikely to be accepted, unless they are fully focused on some important cellular aspect.
These last remarks extend particularly to papers on cancer. Unless firmly based on some deeper cellular or molecular biological principle, papers that are highly specialized in this field, with limited appeal to cell biologists at large, should be directed towards journals devoted to cancer, there being very many from which to choose.
