RAD51 recombinase (RAD51), a central DNA repair protein, plays a crucial role in homologous recombination and has been implicated in cancer progression through mechanisms such as genomic instability, chemoresistance and immune modulation. However, its specific function and regulatory mechanisms in OSCC remain incompletely elucidated. We conducted an integrated multiomics analysis including differential expression, single-cell transcriptomics, prognostic evaluation, functional enrichment and immune infiltration profiling. Experimental validation was performed using siRNA-mediated RAD51 knockdown in OSCC cell line HSC-3, followed by functional assays to assess proliferation, migration, invasion, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and chemosensitivity. RAD51 was significantly overexpressed across multiple cancers, including OSCC, and exhibited high diagnostic accuracy for OSCC (AUC = 0.956). Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed elevated RAD51 expression in malignant and proliferating T cells, associating it with aggressive phenotypic traits. High RAD51 expression predicted poor prognosis in OSCC and other cancers. Functional analyses indicated its involvement in the Fanconi anaemia pathway, DNA damage repair and cell cycle regulation. Immune infiltration analysis revealed significant negative correlations with multiple immune cell subtypes and tumour microenvironment scores. Experimentally, RAD51 knockdown suppressed malignant behaviours and enhanced ROS production and chemosensitivity in HSC-3 cells. RAD51 drives OSCC progression by enhancing malignant phenotypes, suppressing immune infiltration, promoting aberrant DNA repair, elevating oxidative stress and promoting therapy resistance. These findings support RAD51's potential as both a prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target in OSCC.</p>","PeriodicalId":50379,"journal":{"name":"IET Systems Biology","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/syb2.70048","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145686200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Emerging evidence implicates super-enhancer (SE) networks and ferroptosis dysregulation as key oncogenic drivers, though their synergistic prognostic and immune microenvironment implications are unexplored. Super-enhancer-related ferroptosis genes (SEFGs) were identified by intersecting SE-associated and ferroptosis-related genes. Using TCGA-COAD (training) and GSE39582 (validation) cohorts, we established an 8-gene prognostic signature via LASSO Cox regression. This signature formed the basis of a clinical nomogram with robust calibration and discrimination (C-index = 0.813). High-risk patients exhibited significantly reduced overall survival. Elevated risk scores correlated with advanced stage, consensus molecular subtypes (CMS1/CMS4), high tumour mutation burden (TMB), high-level microsatellite instability (MSI) and enhanced immune cell infiltration, paradoxically coupled with immunosuppressive phenotypes including increased immune checkpoint gene expression and reduced immunotherapy responsiveness, alongside increased sensitivity to SE inhibitors. JQ-1 RNA-Seq profiling revealed three core SE-driven genes, TRIB2, CAV1 and ENO3, which were significantly downregulated upon SE inhibition.

Based on the GC dataset in TCGA, we constructed a prognostic signature using M1 TAMs-related genes and validated it using data from the GEO dataset. To evaluate the predictive power of the signature, the survival curves, ROC curves, Cox regression analysis, nomograms and calibration curves were constructed. Differences in immune infiltration, immunotherapy response, and chemotherapy sensitivity between the two risk groups were also analysed. Furthermore, by jointly using the string database and Cytoscape software, we identified the hub gene that differed between the two risk groups. In the end, the expression and function of the identified hub gene were validated using fresh tissue specimens and GC cell lines. A six-gene risk signature was developed based on M1 TAMs-related genes. Furthermore, the ROC curve, nomogram, calibration plot of the nomogram and Cox regression analysis confirmed M1 TAMs co-expressed genes have a strong predictive performance of the six-gene risk signature. Immune infiltration analysis and the TIDE algorithm indicated that low-risk GC patients may be more suitable for immunotherapy. Finally, fibronectin 1 (FN1), the hub gene with the highest degree of interaction between high- and low-risk groups, indicated a significant correlation with survival differences in GC. Functional analysis demonstrated that FN1 promotes GC cell proliferation, invasion, migration and EMT. The risk signature of six M1 TAMs co-expressed genes can be used to evaluate the prognosis and treatment efficacy of patients with GC, providing a basis for selecting new therapies for patients.
