Small nucleolar RNAs signature (SNORS) identified clinical outcome and prognosis of bladder cancer (BLCA)
BACKGROUND: Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a new non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which have not been widely investigated and are identified to be involved in tumorigenesis. But the function of snoRNAs in BLCA has not been reported yet. METHODS: SnoRNAs signature (SNORS) was constructed through LASSO c...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a new non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which have not been widely investigated and are identified to be involved in tumorigenesis. But the function of snoRNAs in BLCA has not been reported yet. METHODS: SnoRNAs signature (SNORS) was constructed through LASSO cox regression analysis. Integrated analysis of candidate snoRNAs was performed to detect the correlation between copy number variation (CNV)/DNA methylation/protein/mRNA/alternative splicing (AS). Then we built a nomogram integrating independent prognostic factors to assist the clinical utility. RESULTS: We have screened out 15 prognostic differentially expressed snoRNAs (DESs) and constructed SNORS consisting of 5 candidate snoRNAs which could appropriately stratify patients into low or high SNORS groups with distinct prognosis. Then we found 5 candidate snoRNAs might be regulated by their own CNV and DNA methylation. Moreover, 5 candidate snoRNAs were significantly correlated mRNA and alternative splicing (AS), which might regulate diverse biological process in tumorigenesis, such as “extracellular matrix”, “epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)”, etc. signaling pathways. Furthermore, SNORS was an independent prognostic factor, which was strikingly correlated with clinical outcome. Through inporating with other variables, we have established a predictive nomogram, which was more effectively to predict prognosis than any other variables alone. CONCLUSION: Our findings first highlighted an important role of snoRNAs in BLCA and established a potential prognostic model which could serve as a biomarker for BLCA. |
