Abstract:
Numerous studies have confirmed the inextricable link between inflammation and malignancy, which is also involved in developing lung adenocarcinoma, where IL-1 signalling is crucial. However, the predictive role of single gene biomarkers is insufficient, and more accurate prognostic models are needed. We downloaded data related to lung adenocarcinoma patients from the GDC, GEO, TISCH2 and TCGA databases for data analysis, model construction and differential gene expression analysis. The genes of IL-1 signalling-related factors were screened from published papers for subgroup typing and predictive correlation analysis. Five prognostic genes associated with IL-1 signalling were finally identified to construct prognostic prediction models. The K-M curves indicated that the prognostic models had significant predictive efficacy. Further immune infiltration scores showed that IL-1 signalling was mainly associated with enhanced immune cells, drug sensitivity of model genes was analysed using the GDSC database, and correlation of critical memories with cell subpopulation components was observed using single-cell analysis. In conclusion, we propose a predictive model based on IL-1 signalling-related factors, a non-invasive predictive approach for genomic characterisation, in predicting patients' survival outcomes. The therapeutic response has shown satisfactory and effective performance. More interdisciplinary areas combining medicine and electronics will be explored in the future.
