Abstract
This study is aimed at exploring the potential mechanism of the PPAR signaling pathway in breast cancer (BRCA) and constructing a novel prognostic-related risk model. We used various bioinformatics methods and databases to complete our exploration in this research. Based on TCGA database, we use multiple extension packages based on the R language for data conversion, processing, and statistics. We use LASSO regression analysis to establish a prognostic-related risk model in BRCA. And we combined the data of multiple online websites, including GEPIA, ImmuCellAI, TIMER, GDSC, and the Human Protein Atlas database to conduct a more in-depth exploration of the risk model. Based on the mRNA data in TCGA database, we conducted a preliminary screening of genes related to the PPAR signaling pathway through univariate Cox analysis, then used LASSO regression analysis to conduct a second screening, and successfully established a risk model consisting of ten genes in BRCA. The results of ROC curve analysis show that the risk model has good prediction accuracy. We can successfully divide breast cancer patients into high- and low-risk groups with significant prognostic differences (P = 1.92e - 05) based on this risk model. Combined with the clinical data in TCGA database, there is a correlation between the risk model and the patient's N, T, gender, and fustat. The results of multivariate Cox regression show that the risk score of this risk model can be used as an independent risk factor for BRCA patients. In particular, we draw a nomogram that can predict the 5-, 7-, and 10-year survival rates of BRCA patients. Subsequently, we conducted a series of pancancer analyses of CNV, SNV, OS, methylation, and immune infiltration for this risk model gene and used GDSC data to investigate drug sensitivity. Finally, to gain insight into the predictive value and protein expression of these risk model genes in breast cancer, we used GEO and HPA databases for validation. This study provides valuable clues for future research on the PPAR signaling pathway in BRCA.

Construction and Validation of Angiogenesis-Related Prognostic Risk Signature to Facilitate Survival Prediction and Biomarker Excavation of Breast Cancer Patients. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2022; 2022:1525245. [PMID: 35498539 PMCID: PMC9045999 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1525245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 04/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
This study is aimed at exploring the potential mechanism of angiogenesis, a biological process-related gene in breast cancer (BRCA), and constructing a risk model related to the prognosis of BRCA patients. We used multiple bioinformatics databases and multiple bioinformatics analysis methods to complete our exploration in this research. First, we use the RNA-seq transcriptome data in the TCGA database to conduct a preliminary screening of angiogenesis-related genes through univariate Cox curve analysis and then use LASSO regression curve analysis for secondary screening. We successfully established a risk model consisting of seven angiogenesis-related genes in BRCA. The results of ROC curve analysis show that the risk model has good prediction accuracy. We can successfully divide BRCA patients into the high-risk and low-risk groups with significant prognostic differences based on this risk model. In addition, we used angiogenesis-related genes to perform cluster analysis in BRCA patients and successfully divided BRCA patients into three clusters with significant prognostic differences, namely, cluster 1, cluster 2, and cluster 3. Subsequently, we combined the clinical-pathological data for correlation analysis, and there is a significant correlation between the risk model and the patient's T and stage. Multivariate Cox regression curve analysis showed that the age of BRCA patients and the risk score of the risk model could be used as independent risk factors in the progression of BRCA. In particular, based on this angiogenesis-related risk model, we have drawn a matching nomogram that can predict the 5-, 7-, and 10-year overall survival rates of BRCA patients. Subsequently, we performed a series of pan-cancer analyses of CNV, SNV, OS, methylation, and immune infiltration for this risk model gene and used GDSC data to explore drug sensitivity. Subsequently, to gain insight into the protein expression of these risk model genes in BRCA, we used the immunohistochemical data in the THPA database for verification. The results showed that the protein expressions of IL18, RUNX1, SCG2, and THY1 molecules in BRCA tissues were significantly higher than those in normal breast tissues, while the protein expressions of PF4 and TNFSF12 molecules in BRCA tissues were significantly lower than those in normal breast tissues. Finally, we conducted multiple GSEA analyses to explore the biological pathways these risk model genes can cross in cancer progression. In summary, we believe that this study can provide valuable data and clues for future studies on angiogenesis in BRCA.
