Background:
Regulated cell death (RCD) has considerable impact on tumor progress and sensitivity of treatment. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) show a high resistance for conventional radiotherapies and chemotherapies. Currently, regulation of cancer cell death has been emerging as a new promising therapeutic avenue for LUAD patients. However, the crosstalk in each pattern RCD is unclear.
Methods:
We integrated collected the hub-genes of 12 RCD subroutines and compressively analyzed these hub-genes synergistic effect in LUAD. The characters of RCD genes expression and prognosis were developed in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-LUAD data. We developed and validated an RCD risk model based on TCGA and GSE70294 data set, respectively. Functional annotation and tumor immunotherapy based on the risk model were also investigated.
Results:
28 RCD-related genes and two LUAD molecular cluster were identified. Survival analysis revealed that the prognosis in high-risk group was worser than those in low-risk group. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that the RCD risk model correlated with immune responses. Further analysis indicated that the high-risk group in RCD risk model exhibited an immunosuppressive microenvironment and a lowly immunotherapy responder ratio.
Conclusions:
We present an RCD risk model which have a promising ability in predicting LUAD prognosis and immunotherapy response.
