| 摘 要: | 目的:探讨缺氧调节相关lncRNA与膀胱尿路上皮癌患者预后和治疗的关系,为临床医学提供新思路。方法:临床和基因组数据来自癌症基因组图谱(TCGA)数据库,缺氧相关基因来自(GSEA)数据库。预后模型是通过共表达分析和Cox回归分析构建的。通过GO、KEGG和肿瘤突变负荷(TMB)分析揭示缺氧相关lncRNA在肿瘤免疫环境中的作用。结果:构建了包含6个与缺氧相关的lncRNA的预后模型。我们发现低风险患者的总生存期(OS)和无进展生存期(PFS)更高。ROC、独立预测分析、C指数和列线图表明缺氧相关的lncRNA模型可以独立预测患者的预后。TMB分析提示缺氧相关lncRNA的生物学功能与肿瘤免疫有关,低风险并具有高TMB患者预后更佳。结论:我们为膀胱尿路上皮癌患者构建了缺氧相关的lncRNA预后模型,低风险及高TMB患者具有更长的总体生存(OS)。 |

| Abstract: | Objective: To investigate the relationship between hypoxia regulation-related lncRNA and the prognosis and treatment of patients with bladder urothelial carcinoma, so as to provide new ideas for clinical medicine. Methods: Clinical and genomic data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and hypoxia-related genes were obtained from the (GSEA) database. Prognostic models were constructed by co-expression analysis and Cox regression analysis. The roles of hypoxia-related lncRNAs in the tumor immune environment were revealed by GO, KEGG and tumor mutational burden (TMB) analysis. Results: A prognostic model containing 6 hypoxia-related lncRNAs was constructed. We found that low-risk patients had better overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). ROC, independent predictive analysis, C-index, and nomogram indicated that hypoxia-related lncRNA models could independently predict patient outcomes. TMB analysis suggested that the biological function of hypoxia-related lncRNA was related to tumor immunity, and patients with low risk and high TMB had better prognosis. Conclusion: We constructed a hypoxia-related lncRNA prognostic model for patients with bladder urothelial carcinoma, and patients with low risk and high TMB had longer overall survival (OS). |
