BackgroundSingle-cell sequencing (SCS) technologies enable analysis of gene structure and expression data at single-cell resolution. However, SCS analysis in pancreatic cancer remains largely unexplored.MethodsWe downloaded pancreatic cancer SCS data from different databases and applied appropriate dimensionality reduction algorithms. We identified 10 cell types and subsequently screened differentially expressed marker genes of these 10 cell types using FindAllMarkers analysis. Also, we evaluated the tumor immune microenvironment based on ESTIMATE and MCP-counter. Statistical enrichment was evaluated using Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis. We used all candidate gene sets in KEGG database to perform gene set enrichment analysis. We used LASSO regression to reduce the number of genes in the pancreatic risk model by R package glmnet, followed by rtPCR to validate the expression of the signature genes in different pancreatic cancer cell lines.ResultsWe identified 15 cell subpopulations by dimension reduction and data clustering. We divided the 15 subpopulations into 10 distinct cell types based on marker gene expression. Then, we performed functional enrichment analysis for the 352 marker genes in pancreatic cancer cells. Based on RNA expression data and prognostic information from TCGA and GEO datasets, we identified 42 prognosis-related genes, including 5 protective genes and 37 high-risk genes, which we used to identified two molecular subtypes. C1 subtype was associated with a better prognosis, whereas C2 subtype was associated with a worse prognosis. Moreover, chemokine and chemokine receptor genes were differentially expressed between C1 and C2 subtypes. Functional and pathway enrichment uncovered functional differences between C1 and C2 subtype. We identified eight genes that could serve as potential biomarkers for prognosis prediction in pancreatic cancer patients. These genes were used to establish an 8-gene pancreatic cancer prognostic model.ConclusionsWe established an 8-gene pancreatic cancer prognostic model. This model can meaningfully predict prognosis and treatment response in pancreatic cancer patients.</p

DataSheet2_Title: Multi-Omics and Immune Landscape of Proliferative LncRNA Signatures: Implications for Risk Stratification and Immunotherapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.xlsx

Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are significantly implicated in tumor proliferation. Nevertheless, proliferation-derived lncRNAs and their latent clinical significance remain largely unrevealed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods: This research enrolled 658 HCC patients from five independent cohorts. We retrieved 50 Hallmark gene sets from the MSigDB portal. Consensus clustering was applied to identify heterogeneous proliferative subtypes, and the nearest template prediction (NTP) was utilized to validate the subtypes. We introduced an integrative framework (termed “ProLnc”) to identify proliferation-derived lncRNAs. Moreover, a proliferation-related signature was developed and verified in four independent cohorts.Results: In 50 Hallmarks, seven proliferation pathways were significantly upregulated and correlated with a worse prognosis. Subsequently, we deciphered two heterogeneous proliferative subtypes in TCGA-LIHC. Subtype 2 displayed enhanced proliferative activities and a worse prognosis, whereas subtype 1 was associated with hyperproliferative HCC and a favorable prognosis. The NTP further verified the robustness and reproducibility of two subtypes in four cohorts derived from different platforms. Combining the differentially expressed lncRNAs from two subtypes with proliferative lncRNA modulators from our ProLnc pipeline, we determined 230 proliferation-associated lncRNAs. Based on the bootstrapping channel and the verification of multiple cohorts, we further identified ten lncRNAs that stably correlated with prognosis. Subsequently, we developed and validated a proliferative lncRNA signature (ProLncS) that could independently and accurately assess the overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) of HCC patients in the four cohorts. Patients with high ProLncS score displayed significantly genomic alterations (e.g., TP53 mutation, 8p23-8p24 copy number variation) and higher abundances of immune cells and immune checkpoint molecules, which suggested immunotherapy was more suitable for patients with high ProLncS score.Conclusion: Our work provided new insights into the heterogeneity of tumor proliferation, and ProLncS could be a prospective tool for tailoring the clinical decision and management of HCC.</p

DataSheet2_Current Research Progress of the Role of LncRNA LEF1-AS1 in a Variety of Tumors.docx

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA), as key regulators of cell proliferation and death, are involved in the regulation of various processes in the nucleus and cytoplasm, involving biological developmental processes in the fields of immunology, neurobiology, cancer, and stress. There is great scientific interest in exploring the relationship between lncRNA and tumors. Many researches revealed that lymph enhancer-binding factor 1-antisense RNA 1 (LEF1-AS1), a recently discovered lncRNA, is downregulated in myeloid malignancy, acting mainly as a tumor suppressor, while it is highly expressed and carcinogenic in glioblastoma (GBM), lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), osteosarcoma, colorectal cancer (CRC), oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), prostatic carcinoma, retinoblastoma, and other malignant tumors. Furthermore, abnormal LEF1-AS1 expression was associated with tumorigenesis, development, survival, and prognosis via the regulation of target genes and signaling pathways. This review summarizes the existing data on the expression, functions, underlying mechanism, relevant signaling pathways, and clinical significance of LEF1-AS1 in cancer. It is concluded that LEF1-AS1 can serve as a novel biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of various tumors, thus deserves further attention in the future.</p
