Construction of prognostic signature of breast cancer based on N7-Methylguanosine-Related LncRNAs and prediction of immune response
Background: Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) is a prognostic factor for malignancies, and N7-Methylguanosine (m7G) is crucial in the occurrence and progression of tumors. However, it has not been documented how well m7G-related LncRNAs predict the development of breast cancer (BC). This study aims to de...

description | Background: Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) is a prognostic factor for malignancies, and N7-Methylguanosine (m7G) is crucial in the occurrence and progression of tumors. However, it has not been documented how well m7G-related LncRNAs predict the development of breast cancer (BC). This study aims to develop a predictive signature based on long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) associated with m7G to predict the prognosis of breast cancer patients.Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database provided us with the RNA-seq data and matching clinical information of individuals with breast cancer. To identify the signature of N7-Methylguanosine-Related LncRNAs and create a prognostic model, we employed co-expression network analysis, least absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis, univariate Cox regression analysis, and multivariate Cox regression analysis. The signature was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier analysis and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. A nomogram and principal component analysis (PCA) were employed to confirm the predictive signature’s usefulness. Then, we examined the drug sensitivity between the two risk groups and utilized single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) to investigate the association between predictive factors and the tumor immune microenvironment in high-risk and low-risk groups.Results: Nine m7G-related LncRNAs (LINC01871, AP003469.4, Z68871.1, AC245297.3, EGOT, TFAP2A-AS1, AL136531.1, SEMA3B-AS1, AL606834.2) that are independently associated with the overall survival time (OS) of BC patients make up the signature we developed. For predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates, the areas under the ROC curve (AUC) were 0.715, 0.724, and 0.726, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the prognosis of BC patients in the high-risk group was worse than that of those in the low-risk group. When compared to clinicopathological variables, multiple regression analysis demonstrated that risk score was a significant independent predictive factor for BC patients. The results of the ssGSEA study revealed a substantial correlation between the predictive traits and the BC patients’ immunological status, low-risk BC patients had more active immune systems, and they responded better to PD1/L1 immunotherapy.Conclusion: The prognostic signature, which is based on m7G-related LncRNAs, can be utilized to inform patients’ customized treatment plans by independently predicting their prognosis and how well they would respond to immunotherapy. |
