Survival analysis of immune-related lncRNA in low-grade glioma
1Department of Neurosurgery, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, Shenyang, China.
Background:
Low-grade glioma is grade I-II glioma. Immunotherapy is a promising way of tumor killing. Research on immune molecular mechanisms in low-grade gliomas and discovery of new immune checkpoints for low-grade gliomas are of great importance.
Methods:
Gene sequencing data and clinical data of low-grade glioma were downloaded from TCGA database. Prognosis related lncRNAs were identified by Cox regression and their possible functions were found by gene enrichment set analysis.
Results:
A total of 529 low-grade glioma samples and 5 non-tumor brain tissue samples are obtained from the TCGA database. Two hundred forty-seven immune-associated lncRNAs are screened. Cox regression showed that 16 immune-related lncRNAs are associated with low-grade glioma prognosis, and 7 lncRNAs are independent risk factors. Gene set enrichment analysis suggests that these molecules are enriched in extracellular region, sequence-specific DNA binding, neuropeptide signaling pathway, transcriptional misregulation in cancer, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, protein digestion and absorption, chemokine signaling pathway, etc. CONCLUSION: The identification of immune-related lncRNA may provide new targets for the research of the molecular mechanisms and treatment of low-grade glioma.

Left truncation occurs when individuals who experienced the event of interest before a certain time are not included in the study. This is often due to a "delayed entry" into the study where only those who survive until a certain entry point are...
