However, the related genetic mechanism for these association is still unclear. The aim of the present study was to identify the key gene(s) associated with TMB in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to investigate its biological functions, downstream transcription factors, and mechanism of action. Methods : Patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas-Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma (TCGA-LIHC) database were classified according to TMB signature-related genes. Key genes related to the TMB signature and tumour prognosis were identified. Immunohistochemistry and Quantitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) were then used to assess gene expression in clinical HCC tissues and HCC cells. Cells with altered gene expression were evaluated for the effect on cell proliferation and apoptosis, both in vitro and in vivo . Three independent databases and cell sequencing data were used to identify the mechanisms involved and the downstream transcription factors. The mechanism was also studied by altering the expression of downstream transcription factors in vitro . Result : The integrated cluster (IC) 2 group, characterized by 99 TMB signature-related genes, showed a significant different TMB score compared to the IC1 group ( p < 0.001), as well as more favourable tumour prognosis ( p = 0.031). We identified five key prognostic genes that were differentially expressed between IC2 and IC1 and were associated with overall survival. The expression of one of these key prognostic genes, RCAN2 , was negatively correlated with TMB in 18 out of 33 tumour types examined. A high level of RCAN2 was correlated with better overall survival in HCC ( p = 0.0009). Overexpression of RCAN2 enhanced apoptosis in vitro and in vivo , whereas knockdown of RCAN2 attenuated apoptosis. The mechanism by which RCAN2 promotes apoptosis may involve upregulation of the expression of ETS homologous factor ( EHF ) and of death receptor 5 ( DR5 ). Conclusions : Downregulation of RCAN2 expression was found to correlate with elevated TMB in multiple cancer types. RCAN2 was also found to be a biomarker of HCC prognosis, and to promote the apoptosis of HCC cells through the EHF/DR5 pathway. These findings provide a new perspective on systemic treatment for advanced HCC with a high TMB.","PeriodicalId":50430,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141685817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
