A lipid metabolism-related risk signature for patients with gliomas constructed with TCGA and CGGA data

Lipid metabolism affects cell proliferation, differentiation, membrane homeostasis and drug resistance. An in-depth exploration of lipid metabolism in gliomas might provide a novel direction for gliomas treatment.

Sumario:Lipid metabolism affects cell proliferation, differentiation, membrane homeostasis and drug resistance. An in-depth exploration of lipid metabolism in gliomas might provide a novel direction for gliomas treatment. A lipid metabolism-related risk signature was constructed in our study to assess the prognosis of patients with gliomas. Lipid metabolism-related genes were extracted. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened, and a risk signature was built. The ability of the risk signature to predict the outcomes of patients with gliomas was assessed using the log-rank test and Cox regression analysis. The relationships between immunological characteristics, drug sensitivity and the risk score were evaluated, and the risk-related mechanisms were also estimated. Twenty lipid metabolism-related DEGs associated with the patient prognosis were included in the risk signature. The survival rate of high-risk patients was worse than that of low-risk patients. The risk score independently predicted the outcomes of patients. Immunological parameters, drug sensitivity, immunotherapy benefits, and numerous molecular mechanisms were significantly associated with the risk score. A lipid metabolism-related risk signature might effectively assess the prognosis of patients with gliomas. The risk score might guide individualized treatment and further clinical decision-making for patients with gliomas.
