Image1_Experimental verification and comprehensive analysis of m7G methylation regulators in the subcluster classification of ischemic stroke.TIF
Background: Ischemic stroke (IS) is a fatal cerebrovascular disease involving several pathological mechanisms. Modification of 7-methylguanosine (m7G) has multiple regulatory functions. However, the expression pattern and mechanism of m7G in IS remain unknown. Herein, we aimed to explore the effect of m7G modification on IS.Methods: We screened significantly different m7G-regulated genes in Gene Expression Omnibus datasets, GSE58294 and GSE22255. The random forest (RF) algorithm was selected to identify key m7G-regulated genes that were subsequently validated using the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). A risk model was subsequently generated using key m7G-regulated genes. Then, “ConsensusClusterPlus” package was used to distinguish different m7G clusters of patients with IS. Simultaneously, between two m7G clusters, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and immune infiltration differences were also explored. Finally, we investigated functional enrichment and the mRNA–miRNA–transcription factor network of DEGs.Results: RF and qPCR confirmed that EIF3D, CYFIP2, NCBP2, DCPS, and NUDT1 were key m7G-related genes in IS that could accurately predict clinical risk (area under the curve = 0.967). NCBP2 was the most significantly associated gene with immune infiltration. Based on the expression profiles of these key m7G-related genes, the IS group could be divided into two clusters. According to the single-sample gene set enrichment analysis algorithm, four types of immune cells (immature dendritic cells, macrophages, natural killer T cells, and TH1 cells) were significantly different in the two m7G clusters. The functional enrichment of 282 DEGs between the two clusters was mainly concentrated in the “regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway,” “cellular response to DNA damage stimulus,” “adaptive immune system,” and “pyroptosis.” The miR-214–LTF–FOXJ1 axis may be a key regulatory pathway for IS.Conclusion: Our findings suggest that EIF3D, CYFIP2, NCBP2, DCPS, and NUDT1 may serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers for IS and that the m7G clusters developed by these genes provide more evidence for the regulation of m7G in IS.</p

Table3_A novel risk score model based on fourteen chromatin regulators-based genes for predicting overall survival of patients with lower-grade gliomas.XLSX
Background: Low grade gliomas(LGGs) present vexatious management issues for neurosurgeons. Chromatin regulators (CRs) are emerging as a focus of tumor research due to their pivotal role in tumorigenesis and progression. Hence, the goal of the current work was to unveil the function and value of CRs in patients with LGGs.Methods: RNA-Sequencing and corresponding clinical data were extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) database. A single-cell RNA-seq dataset was sourced from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Altogether 870 CRs were retrieved from the published articles in top academic journals. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm and Cox regression analysis were applied to construct the prognostic risk model. Patients were then assigned into high- and low-risk groups based on the median risk score. The Kaplan–Meier (K-M) survival curve and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were performed to assess the prognostic value. Sequentially, functional enrichment, tumor immune microenvironment, tumor mutation burden, drug prediction, single cell analysis and so on were analyzed to further explore the value of CR-based signature. Finally, the expression of signature genes were validated by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR).Results: We successfully constructed and validated a 14 CRs-based model for predicting the prognosis of patients with LGGs. Moreover, we also found 14 CRs-based model was an independent prognostic factor. Functional analysis revealed that the differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in tumor and immune related pathways. Subsequently, our research uncovered that LGGs patients with higher risk scores exhibited a higher TMB and were less likely to be responsive to immunotherapy. Meanwhile, the results of drug analysis offered several potential drug candidates. Furthermore, tSNE plots highlighting the magnitude of expression of the genes of interest in the cells from the scRNA-seq assay. Ultimately, transcription expression of six representative signature genes at the mRNA level was consistent with their protein expression changes.Conclusion: Our findings provided a reliable biomarker for predicting the prognosis, which is expected to offer new insight into LGGs management and would hopefully become a promising target for future research.</p
