Construction of immune-related risk signature for uveal melanoma

AbstractUveal melanoma (UM) is the most frequent primary ocular tumour among adults. Here, we aimed to establish the immune cell-based signature to predict the overall survival (OS) of UM patients. The mRNA profile and matched clinical records of 80 UM patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome...

description AbstractUveal melanoma (UM) is the most frequent primary ocular tumour among adults. Here, we aimed to establish the immune cell-based signature to predict the overall survival (OS) of UM patients. The mRNA profile and matched clinical records of 80 UM patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. CIBERSORT was used to verify the immune cell types of individuals. The univariate analysis found the CD8+ T cell, monocyte, CD4+ memory T cell (resting) and mast cell (resting) were significantly associated with the OS of UM patients. Subsequently, the LASSO Cox regression test was applied to establish the signature, by which the patients were separated into high- and low-risk subgroups. The Kaplan–Meier analyses found for these patients in the high-risk group had a poor survival rate than those in the low-risk group. The predictive value and stability were confirmed by the receiver operative characteristics curves. Pathway analyses found that the differentially expressed genes between the high- and low-risk subgroups were mainly centralised on immune response-related pathways. Further, the comparison of our signature with clinicopathological records confirmed its superiority and independence. In summary, we established an immune cell-based prognosis-predicting signature for UM patients, which will benefit the individual’s treatment.
