Image_3_Cuproptosis depicts tumor microenvironment phenotypes and predicts precision immunotherapy and prognosis in bladder carcinoma.tiff

BackgroundThough immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) exhibit durable efficacy in bladder carcinomas (BLCAs), there are still a large portion of patients insensitive to ICIs treatment.MethodsWe systematically evaluated the cuproptosis patterns in BLCA patients based on 46 cuproptosis related genes and correlated these cuproptosis patterns with tumor microenvironment (TME) phenotypes and immunotherapy efficacies. Then, for individual patient’s evaluation, we constructed a cuproptosis risk score (CRS) for prognosis and a cuproptosis signature for precise TME phenotypes and immunotherapy efficacies predicting.ResultsTwo distinct cuproptosis patterns were generated. These two patterns were consistent with inflamed and noninflamed TME phenotypes and had potential role for predicting immunotherapy efficacies. We constructed a CRS for predicting individual patient’s prognosis with high accuracy in TCGA-BLCA. Importantly, this CRS could be well validated in external cohorts including GSE32894 and GSE13507. Then, we developed a cuproptosis signature and found it was significantly negative correlated with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) both in TCGA-BLCA and Xiangya cohorts. Moreover, we revealed that patients in the high cuproptosis signature group represented a noninflamed TME phenotype on the single cell level. As expected, patients in the high cuproptosis signature group showed less sensitive to immunotherapy. Finally, we found that the high and low cuproptosis signature groups were consistent with luminal and basal subtypes of BLCA respectively, which validated the role of signature in TME in terms of molecular subtypes.ConclusionsCuproptosis patterns depict different TME phenotypes in BLCA. Our CRS and cuproptosis signature have potential role for predicting prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy, which might guide precise medicine.</p

Table_11_Cuproptosis-related modification patterns depict the tumor microenvironment, precision immunotherapy, and prognosis of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma.xlsx

BackgroundDue to the different infiltration abundance of immune cells in tumor, the efficacy of immunotherapy varies widely among individuals. Recently, growing evidence suggested that cuproptosis has impact on cancer immunity profoundly. However, the comprehensive roles of cuproptosis-related genes in tumor microenvironment (TME) and in response to immunotherapy are still unclear.MethodsBased on 43 cuproptosis-related genes, we employed unsupervised clustering to identify cuproptosis-related patterns and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis algorithm to build a cuproptosis signature for individual patient’s immune cell infiltration and efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) evaluation. Then, the cuproptosis-related genes were narrowed down using univariate Cox regression model and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm. Finally, a cuproptosis risk score was built by random survival forest based on these narrowed-down genes.ResultsTwo distinct cuproptosis-related patterns were developed, with cuproptosis cluster 1 showing better prognosis and higher enrichment of immune-related pathways and infiltration of immune cells. For individual evaluation, the cuproptosis signature that we built could be used not only for predicting immune cell infiltration in TME but also for evaluating an individual’s sensitivity to ICBs. Patients with higher cuproptosis signature scores exhibited more activated cancer immune processes, higher immune cell infiltration, and better curative efficacy of ICBs. Furthermore, a robust cuproptosis risk score indicated that patients with higher risk scores showed worse survival outcomes, which could be validated in internal and external validation cohorts. Ultimately, a nomogram which combined the risk score with the prognostic clinical factors was developed, and it showed excellent prediction accuracy for survival outcomes.ConclusionDistinct cuproptosis-related patterns have significant differences on prognosis and immune cell infiltration in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC). Cuproptosis signature and risk score are able to provide guidance for precision therapy and accurate prognosis prediction for patients with KIRC.</p
