Identification of Immune-Related Subtypes and Characterization of Tumor Microenvironment Infiltration in Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma
Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays indisputable role in the progression of cancers. Immune cell infiltration (ICI) in TME was related to the prognosis of tumor patients. In this paper, we identified the pattern of immune-related ICI subtypes based on the TME immune infiltration pattern....

description | Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays indisputable role in the progression of cancers. Immune cell infiltration (ICI) in TME was related to the prognosis of tumor patients. In this paper, we identified the pattern of immune-related ICI subtypes based on the TME immune infiltration pattern. Methods: The data from kidney renal clear cell carcinoma data (KIRC) was downloaded from the TCGA database. The distinct ICI subtypes were identified using CIBERSORT and ESTIMATE algorithms. The gene subgroups were identified based on DEGs in ICI subtypes. The single sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was used to ascertain the ICI score. Kaplan-Meier curve with log-rank test was conducted to analyze the survival probability of patients with KIRC in different subtypes. Results: The patients with high ICI scores exhibited a longer survival time and lower expression of checkpoint-related and immune activity-related genes. The high ICI score clusters were positively related to TMB. The patients in the low TMB subgroups have a favorable prognosis. The prediction ICI score did not affect the TMB status, and the low TMB subgroups + low/high ICI score subgroups exhibited better survival. Conclusion: In all, the tumor immune microenvironment, ICI score, and TMB were important determinants of KIRC patients’ survival outcomes. The TMB + ICI score may be a potential biomarker for predicting the prognosis of patients and for targeted immunotherapies to treating KIRC. |
