During the development of ALI/ARDS, a key pathological feature involves the disruption of the intact alveolar-capillary barrier, which is formed by alveolar epithelium, pulmonary interstitium, and microvascular endothelium. Under physiological conditions, cell death removes excess or dysfunctional cells, defends against pathogenic microorganisms, and thus plays a protective role while maintaining homeostasis. However, excessive clearance reactions can lead to pathological loss of pulmonary epithelial cells, endothelial cells, or macrophage-immune cells, eventually exacerbating tissue structural damage. With the discovery of various programmed cell death mechanisms, researchers have consistently uncovered the participation of cell death modes such as apoptosis, pyroptosis, necroptosis, and PANoptosis in the pathological processes underlying ALI/ARDS. Modulating these critical death pathways presents opportunities for therapeutic intervention in disease progression. Among these, PANoptosis is an independent lytic inflammatory cell death pathway initiated by innate immune sensors and driven by the PANoptosome complex, playing a core role in lung injury and infectious diseases.

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) was employed to categorize cell subtypes associated with RiboSis. An integrative machine learning approach encompassing ten algorithms was subsequently implemented to develop a prognostic signature. Our research revealed 295 differentially expressed RiboSis-related genes (DERRGs) associated with survival outcomes, with a notable RiboSis score that was markedly higher in CRC tissues than in normal counterparts. Univariate Cox analysis revealed 25 DERRGs with significant survival differences (P < 0.05). scRNA-seq of 26,961 cells from 13 CRC samples revealed eight major cell types, with T and B cells predominantly enriched in immune response pathways. InferCNV analysis distinguished malignant epithelial cells on the basis of copy number variations, and NMF identified four RiboSis-related cell subtypes. Our RiboSis-related prognostic model, validated across the TCGA, GSE17536, and GSE39582 datasets, demonstrated high predictive accuracy. Notably, low RiboSis signature scores were correlated with reduced immune evasion risk and upregulated immune checkpoint genes, suggesting enhanced responsiveness to immunotherapy. Among the 8 model genes, PFDN2 was considered the hub gene. The experimental results of PFDN2 in this RiboSis signature indicated that PFDN2 expression is elevated in CRC tissues and that PFDN2 knockdown promotes the proliferation, migration, and invasion of CRC cells.
