lncRNAs Functioned as ceRNA to Sponge miR-15a-5p Affects the Prognosis of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma and Correlates With Tumor Immune Infiltration

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is one of the most common malignant tumors with poor prognosis worldwide. Mounting evidence suggests that the expression of lncRNAs and the infiltration of immune cells have prognostic value for patients with PAAD. We used Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and i...

description Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is one of the most common malignant tumors with poor prognosis worldwide. Mounting evidence suggests that the expression of lncRNAs and the infiltration of immune cells have prognostic value for patients with PAAD. We used Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and identified six genes (COL1A2, ITGA2, ITGB6, LAMA3, LAMB3, and LAMC2) that could affect the survival rate of pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients. Based on a series of in silico analyses for reverse prediction of target genes associated with the prognosis of PAAD, a ceRNA network of mRNA (COL1A2, ITGA2, LAMA3, LAMB3, and LAMC2)–microRNA (miR-15a-5p)–long non-coding RNA (LINC00511, LINC01578, PVT1, and TNFRSF14-AS1) was constructed. We used the algorithm “CIBERSORT” to assess the proportion of immune cells and found three overall survival (OS)–associated immune cells (monocytes, M1 macrophages, and resting mast cell). Moreover, the OS-associated gene level was significantly positively associated with immune checkpoint expression and biomarkers of immune cells. In summary, our results clarified that ncRNA-mediated upregulation of OS-associated genes and tumor-infiltration immune cells (monocytes, M1 macrophages M1, and resting mast cell resting) correlated with poor prognosis in PAAD.
