Identification and external validation of a prognostic signature based on myeloid-derived suppressor cells-related LncRNAs to evaluate survival prognosis and treatment efficacy in invasive breast carcinoma
Background
Originating in the hematopoietic tissue, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) significantly contribute to tumor-related immunological processes. However, their relationship with long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and breast cancer remains incompletely understood. In this study, we introduced MDSCs-associated lncRNAs as novel prognostic biomarkers to assess outcomes in patients with invasive breast carcinoma (BRCA).
Methods
Information regarding BRCA cases, including clinical and genomic details, was obtained from the TCGA repository. Predictive indicators were discovered, and their reliability underwent thorough verification. A clinically useful nomogram was developed following application-based validation. Additional investigations encompassed functional analysis, TMB assessment, TME profiling, immunotherapy efficacy forecasting, and drug sensitivity testing along with target identification. Long non-coding RNA expression was measured using reverse transcription quantitative PCR.
Results
A risk stratification model incorporating eight MDSCs-related lncRNAs effectively predicted patient outcomes. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival analysis clearly indicated a much worse prognosis among patients classified as high-risk (p < 0.001). The nomogram accurately forecasted overall survival (OS). Analysis of functional enrichment revealed that pathways associated with epithelial cells showed activity among patients at higher risk. Characterization of the tumor microenvironment showed increased immune cell presence in those classified as low-risk. Conversely, individuals with greater risk displayed higher tumor mutational burden. TIDE and IPS analyses indicated superior immunotherapy responsiveness in the low-risk BRCA subgroup. Among 47 drugs with notable IC50 variations, Ribociclib, PD173074, KU-55933, NU7441, and nutlin-3a exhibited lower IC50 values within the low-risk group, whereas Lapatinib demonstrated greater efficacy among the high-risk group. Moreover, 10 potential therapeutic agents and their targets were predicted for high-risk patients. RT-qPCR validation confirmed the robustness of the model.
Conclusions
We successfully verified a new model of molecular markers of MDSCs-related lncRNAs, offering critical insights for predicting outcomes and guiding therapeutic decisions in BRCA cases.
期刊介绍:
Open access, online only, peer-reviewed international journal in the Life Sciences, established in 2014 Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports (BB Reports) publishes original research in all aspects of Biochemistry, Biophysics and related areas like Molecular and Cell Biology. BB Reports welcomes solid though more preliminary, descriptive and small scale results if they have the potential to stimulate and/or contribute to future research, leading to new insights or hypothesis. Primary criteria for acceptance is that the work is original, scientifically and technically sound and provides valuable knowledge to life sciences research. We strongly believe all results deserve to be published and documented for the advancement of science. BB Reports specifically appreciates receiving reports on: Negative results, Replication studies, Reanalysis of previous datasets.
