Integrative analysis of FADS3 as a marker for prognosis and immunity in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Background
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid formation requires fatty acid desaturase (FADS), which is strongly linked to cancer progression. Nevertheless, it's unclear how FADS3 functions in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Methods
HNSCC cases were retrieved from TCGA and GEO databases, and FADS members with transcriptionally differential expression were identified. Clinical survival, tumor microenvironment (TME), and potential pathogenic mechanism in HNSCC were also investigated. These results were validated using tissue staining, flow cytometry and functional studies in HNSCC cell lines.
Results
When comparing HNSCC to normal epithelial tissues, FADS3 expression was much higher in the former. FADS3 upregulation was correlated with poor clinical outcomes. FADS3 was an independent prognostic factor for poor overall survival in HNSCC patients. KEGG, GO, and GSEA revealed that FADS3 expression correlated with several immune-related pathways and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Knocking down FADS3 restrained HNSCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT. Single-cell dataset analysis showed an association between FADS3 and TME features. Further investigation revealed that FADS3high tumor was accompanied with less CD8+ T cells in situ tissue and peripheral blood. FADS3 was positively correlated with immune-related molecules and could predict the adverse efficacy of immunotherapy. Finally, we constructed a CYTOR/hsa-let-7c-5p axis regulating FADS3 expression in HNSCC progression.
Conclusions
FADS3 may represent a target for treatment in HNSCC, which is linked to prognosis, EMT, immune infiltration, and ceRNA regulatory network of HNSCC.
