    Abstract: Diffuse gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors with the highest mortality and recurrence rate in adults. Integrin alpha-2 (ITGA2) is involved in a series of biological processes, including cell adhesion, stemness regulation, angiogenesis, and immune/blood cell functions. The role of ITGA2 in lower-grade gliomas (LGGs) is not well defined. Firstly, we downloaded RNA sequencing and relevant clinical information from The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort, the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas cohort, and related immune cohorts. Next, prognosis analysis, difference analysis, clinical model construction, enrichment analysis, and immune infiltration analysis are performed for this study. These analyses indicated that ITGA2 may have clinical application value and research value in LGG immunotherapy. We also detected the mRNA and protein expression of ITGA2 in three LGG cell lines and normal glial cells using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction assay and western blot assay. Our study not only offers a novel target for LGG immunotherapy but also can better comprehend the mechanism of the development and progression of patients with LGG. This study revealed that ITGA2 may be a potential prognostic and predictive biomarker for LGG, which can bring new insights into targeted immunotherapy.

    Abstract: The p21-activated kinase (PAK) family (PAKs) plays a key role in the formation and development of human tumors. However, a systematic analysis of PAKs in human cancers is lacking and the potential role of PAKs in cancer immunity has not been explored. Methods We used datasets from in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and Genotype-Tissue Expression database (GTEx). Results Based on TCGA datasets most PAKs show noteworthy differences in expression between tumors and corresponding normal tissues or across different tumor tissues. Patients with high expression of PAKs often show a worse prognosis. However, copy number variation, mutation, and DNA methylation of PAKs have limited impact on tumor development. Further analysis showed that the impact of PAKs on immunity varies with the type of tumor and the respective tumor microenvironment. PAK1 and PAK4 may be stronger predictors of immune characteristics, and are more suitable as drugs and molecular therapeutic targets. Furthermore, Cox regression analysis revealed that a PAK gene signature could be used as an independent prognostic factor for lower grade glioma (LGG) and glioblastoma (GBM). Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) analysis indicated that PAK genes may affect the occurrence and development of GBM through the PI3K signaling pathway. Further experiments verified that PAK1 and AKT1 have a significant interaction in GBM cells, and inhibiting the overactivation of PAK1 can significantly inhibit the proliferation of GBM cells. Conclusions Our study provides a rationale for further research on the prognostic and therapeutic potential of PAKs in human tumors.

    Abstract: Leukocyte‐associated immunoglobulin‐like receptor‐1 (LAIR‐1), is an immunosuppressive receptor, widely expressed by immune cells, but the part of LAIR‐1 in glioma progression remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between LAIR‐1 expression and the development of lower‐grade glioma (LGG) using publicly available data sets. Methods We took advantage of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to analyze the expression of LAIR‐1 in patients with LGG. Second, Kaplan‐Meier methods and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to examine the clinical significance of LAIR‐1 expression in combination with CGGA databases, and then receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to verify the prognostic utility of LAIR‐1. Gene ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were used to explore the function of LAIR‐1. Analysis of the correlation with immune infiltration was conducted using the ESTIMATE algorithm and single sample gene set enrichment analysis. Results Our results showed that LAIR‐1 expression to be positively correlated with malignant clinicopathologic features of LGG. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis revealed that overexpression of LAIR‐1 was correlated with a worse prognosis in patients. A nomogram model combining LAIR‐1 was more useful in guiding clinical diagnosis, and functional enrichment analysis showed that malignant development of glioma was closely affiliated with the tumor immune microenvironment. Conclusion These results indicate that LAIR 1 is a latent marker for determining the prognosis of LGG patients. LAIR 1 may also participate a critical part in TIME of LGG by regulating the infiltration of immune cells, suggesting that LAIR 1 might be used as a therapeutic target to regulate the antitumor immune response.

    Abstract: RNA binding proteins (RBPs) have been reported to be involved in cancer malignancy but related functions in glioma have been less studied. Herein, we screened 14 prognostic RBP genes and constructed a risk signature to predict the prognosis of glioma patients. Univariate Cox regression was used to identify overall survival (OS)-related RBP genes. Prognostic RBP genes were screened and used to establish the RBP-signature using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) method in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort. The 14 RBP genes signature showed robust and stable prognostic value in the TCGA training ( n = 562) cohort and in three independent validation cohorts (Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas [CGGA]seq1, CGGAseq2, and GSE16011 datasets comprising 303, 619, and 250 glioma patients, respectively). Risk scores were calculated for each patient and high-risk gliomas were defined by the median risk score in each cohort. Survival analysis in subgroups of glioma patients showed that the RBP-signature retained its prognostic value in low-grade gliomas (LGGs) and glioblastomas (GBM)s. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis in each dataset and the meta cohort revealed that the RBP-signature stratification could efficiently recognize hi gh-risk gliomas [Hazard Ratio (HR):3.662, 95% confidence interval (CI): 3.187–4.208, p & lt; 0.001] and was an independent prognostic factor for OS (HR:1.594, 95% CI: 1.244–2.043, p & lt; 0.001). Biological process and KEGG pathway analysis revealed the RBP gene signature was associated with immune cell activation, the p53 signaling pathway, and the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and so on. Moreover, a nomogram model was constructed for clinical application of the RBP-signature, which showed stable predictive ability. In summary, the RBP-signature could be a robust indicator for prognostic evaluation and identifying high-risk glioma patients.

    Abstract: Transporter associated with antigen processing 1 (TAP1) is a molecule involved in processing and presentation of major histocompatibility complex class I restricted antigens, including tumor-associated antigens. TAP1 participates in tumor immunity, and is aberrantly expressed in multiple cancer types; Methods Transcriptome profiles were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Genotype-Tissue Expression databases. Genetic alterations, protein distribution, and interaction information for TAP1 were downloaded from cBioPortal, Human Protein Atlas and Compartmentalized Protein–Protein Interaction, respectively. Single-cell analyses of TAP1 across cancers were conducted via the Tumor Immune Single-cell Hub website. Gene set enrichment analysis was employed to investigate TAP1-associated functional mechanisms and processes. Immune cell infiltration was explored using Tumor Immune Estimation Resource 2.0. Pan-cancer correlations between TAP1 expression and immunotherapy biomarkers were explored using the Spearman’s correlation test. Associations with immunotherapy responses were also investigated using clinicopathological and prognostic information from cohorts of patients with cancer receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors. Results TAP1 expression was elevated in most cancer types and exhibited distinct prognostic value. Immune cells expressed more TAP1 than malignant cells within most tumors. TAP1 expression was significantly correlated with immune-related pathways, T-lymphocyte infiltration, and immunotherapeutic biomarkers. Clinical cohort validation revealed a significant correlation with immune therapeutic effects and verified the prognostic role of TAP1 in immunotherapy. Western blot assay indicated that TAP1 is upregulated in glioblastoma compared with adjacent normal brain tissues. Conclusion TAP1 is a robust tumor prognostic biomarker and a novel predictor of clinical prognosis and immunotherapeutic responses in various cancer types.

    Abstract: Although intrinsic immune-evasion is important in cancer proliferation, metastasis and response to treatment, it is unclear whether intrinsic immune-evasion patterns of gliomas can aid in predicting clinical prognosis and determining treatment. Methods A total of 182 immune-evasion genes intrinsic to cancer were subjected to consensus clustering to identify immune-evasion patterns in 1421 patients with lower-grade glioma (LGG). The levels of each cancer hallmark were determined by the Gene Set Variant Analysis (GSVA) method, and immune cell infiltrations were quantified using two algorithms, the single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA) and the Cell-type Identification By Estimating Relative Subsets Of RNA Transcripts (CIBERSORT) methods. IEVscore was determined by a method that combined univariate Cox regression analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and principal component analysis (PCA). Results Transcriptional and genomic analysis showed that most immune evasion genes (IEVGs) were upregulated in LGGs, with aberrant expression driven by alterations in copy number variants (CNV). Based on the mRNA expression profiles of cancer-intrinsic IEVGs could be divided into three LGG subgroups with distinct prognosis, clinicopathological features and immune infiltrations. A combined scoring scheme designed to assess the immune-evasion levels of LGGs divided these 1421 patients into two subgroups that differed in IEVscores. LGG patients with low-IEVscore had a better prognosis, would be more likely to benefit from immune check-point inhibitors and would be more susceptible to temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. Conclusion Intrinsic immune evasion in the tumor microenvironment (TME) has a crucial effect on glioma formation. Quantitatively assessing the IEV scores of individual LGG patients could enhance knowledge about the intra-glioma microenvironment and lead to the development of individualized therapeutic strategies for patients with LGG.

    Abstract: Increasing evidence has revealed the key activity of protein disulfide isomerase A4 (PDIA4) in the endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) response. However, the role of PDIA4 in regulating glioblastoma (GBM)-specific pro-angiogenesis is still unknown. Methods The expression and prognostic role of PDIA4 were analyzed using a bioinformatics approach and were validated in 32 clinical samples and follow-up data. RNA-sequencing was used to search for PDIA4-associated biological processes in GBM cells, and proteomic mass spectrum (MS) analysis was used to screen for potential PDIA4 substrates. Western blotting, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were used to measure the levels of the involved factors. Cell migration and tube formation assays determined the pro-angiogenesis activity of PDIA4 in vitro. An intracranial U87 xenograft GBM animal model was constructed to evaluate the pro-angiogenesis role of PDIA4 in vivo. Results Aberrant overexpression of PDIA4 was associated with a poor prognosis in patients with GBM, although PDIA4 could also functionally regulate intrinsic GBM secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) through its active domains of Cys-X-X-Cys (CXXC) oxidoreductase. Functionally, PDIA4 exhibits pro-angiogenesis activity both in vitro and in vivo, and can be upregulated by ERS through transcriptional regulation of X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1). The XBP1/PDIA4/VEGFA axis partially supports the mechanism underlying GBM cell survival under ER stress. Further, GBM cells with higher expression of PDIA4 showed resistance to antiangiogenic therapy in vivo. Conclusions Our findings revealed the pro-angiogenesis role of PDIA4 in GBM progression and its potential impact on GBM survival under a harsh microenvironment. Targeting PDIA4 might help to improve the efficacy of antiangiogenic therapy in patients with GBM.
