Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Cuproptosis, one of the newest forms of cell death induction, is attracting mounting attention. However, the role of cuproptosis in lung cancer is currently unclear. In this study, we constructed a prognostic signature utilizing cuproptosis-related long noncoding RNAs (CRL) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and researched its clinical and molecular function. METHODS: RNA-related and clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Differentially expressed CRLs were screened using the ‘limma’ package of R software. We used coexpression analysis and univariate Cox analysis to further identify prognostic CRLs. Applying least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and Cox regression models, a prognostic risk model based on 16 prognostic CRLs was constructed. To validate prognostic CRL function in LUAD, vitro experiments were conducted to explore the expression of GLIS2-AS1, LINC01230, and LINC00592 in LUAD. Subsequently, according to a formula, patients in the training, test, and overall groups were split into high- and low-risk groups. Kaplan-Meier and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were applied to assess the predictability of the risk model. Finally, the associations between risk signature and immunity-related analysis, somatic mutation, principal component analysis (PCA), enriched molecular pathways, and drug sensitivity was investigated. RESULTS: A cuproptosis-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) signature was constructed. Using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) trial, we verified that the expressions of GLIS2-AS1, LINC01230, and LINC00592 in LUAD cell lines and tissues were consistent with the above screening results. Based on this signature, a total of 471 LUAD samples from TCGA data set were split into two risk groups based on the computed risk score. The risk model showed a better capacity in predicting prognosis than traditional clinicopathological features. Moreover, significant differences were found in immune cell infiltration, drug sensitivity, and immune checkpoint expression between the two risk groups. CONCLUSIONS: The CRLs signature was shown to be a prospective biomarker to forecast prognosis in patients with LUAD and presents new insights for personalized treatment of LUAD. |
