description | BackgroundDNA damage response and repair (DDR) related signatures play an important role in maintaining genome stability and other biological processes. It also affects the occurrence, development, and treatment of cancer. However, in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), especially clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC), the potential association between DDR-related signatures and tumor heterogeneity and tumor microenvironment (TME) remains unclear.MethodsUtilizing unsupervised clustering algorithm, we divided RCC into two subgroups, DCS1 and DCS2, according to the differences in DDR gene expression, and compared the characteristics of the two subgroups through multiple dimensions.ResultsCompared with DCS1, DCS2 patients have higher clinical stage/grade and worse prognosis, which may be related to active metabolic status and immunosuppression status. At the same time, the high mutation rate in DCS2 may also be an important reason for the prognosis. We also analyzed the sensitivity of the two subgroups to different therapeutic agents and established a subtypes' biomarkers-based prognostic system with good validation results to provide ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Finally, we identified a pivotal role for DDX1 in the DDR gene set, which may serve as a future therapeutic target.ConclusionThis study showed that DDR has an important impact on the development and treatment of RCC. DCS2 subtypes have a poor prognosis, and more personalized treatment and follow-up programs may be needed. The assessment of DDR gene mutations in patients may be helpful for clinical decision-making. DDX1 may be one of the effective targets for RCC treatment in the future. |
