Collecting bone marrow samples of 12 clinical MM patients and 7 healthy controls, and obtaining mononuclear cells from the bone marrow samples through Ficoll separation; and entrusts Beijing Nuo and the SourceSculture Co., Ltd to carry out single cell sequencing, analyzes the components and the proportion of the bone marrow mononuclear cells of the MM initial diagnosis patient from the single cell level, and analyzes the gene expression of the tumor cells.
Meanwhile, bone marrow samples of 58 primary-diagnosis high-risk MM patients (the existing sMART3.0, Mayo Clinic2018 standard high-risk) are collected, MM cells in the bone marrow samples are purified by a Ficoll and CD138 immunomagnetic bead sorting method, and transcriptome sequencing (bulk RNAseq) is carried out. Clinical information is collected from the patient.
A total of 42, 936 cells were single cell sequenced by quality inspection. Then 17 cell subsets were obtained by unsupervised clustering (FIG. 1), and the proportion of each cell subset in each sample was analyzed, and it was found that cluster0 was significantly higher in MM patients than in healthy controls, and belonged to MM tumor cells. Furthermore, the proportion of cluster0 in MM patients increases significantly with increasing risk to the patient (FIG. 2). The proportion of cluster0 is used as the cutoff value, MM patients can be divided into 3 groups, less than 10% is used as a standard risk group, 10% -35% is used as a high risk group, and more than 35% is used as an ultra-high risk group. The risk groups have better consistency with the current groups, and the standard risk of other samples except the #16 sample is completely consistent with the standard risk groups. Comparing and analyzing the gene expression of MM cells of the ultra-high risk patients with the gene expression of MM cells of the high risk patients to find 691 differentially expressed genes, wherein 606 up-regulated genes are expressed, and 85 down-regulated genes are expressed.
Further carrying out secondary unsupervised cluster analysis on the MM cell clone identified in the single cell sequencing to obtain 13 MM cell subclones, and discovering that the No. 4 subclone MM cell has the characteristics of high proliferation, high invasion, drug resistance and the like and has the characteristics of MM tumor initiating cells through analysis of transcription activity, cell proliferation activity, drug resistance and the like. Gene expression analysis found that subclone No. 4 had 1320 gene expression differences (logFC >0.25, p <0.01) compared to other MM cell subclones, 1263 of which were up-regulated and 57 of which were down-regulated.
The first 10 sites of the up-regulated expression genes of the ultra-high risk group found by the previous analysis and the first 10 sites of the up-regulated expression gene of the subclone No. 4 are subjected to Wien analysis, wherein 7 common up-regulated genes are respectively as follows: LILRB4(NM _001278426.4), ITGB7(NM _000889.3), CRIP1(NM _001311.5), TUBA1B (NM _006082.3), CCND2(NM _001759.4), HIST1H4C (NM _003542.4), and CD74(NM _ 001025158.3).
In order to verify whether the 7 genes can further stratify the clinically currently identified high-risk patients, single-factor and multi-factor Cox regression analysis is respectively carried out, the result shows that the 7 genes are all related to poor prognosis of the patients (p <0.01) by the single-factor analysis, and the multi-factor analysis further proves that the 7 genes are related to poor prognosis of the patients with high expression (p < 0.01).

To further verify whether the 7 genes can further stratify the clinically currently identified high-risk patients, the 7 MM genes are subjected to multi-factor Cox regression analysis modeling by using the gene chip data of the R-ISS stage III patient and a "coxph" function, and Variance expansion factors (VIF) of each gene are calculated, wherein the square roots of all the VIFs are less than 2, and the 7 genes are considered to have no co-linear relationship. A prognostic risk model is constructed by using a multifactorial Cox regression coefficient, wherein the risk score is (LILRB4 expression amount multiplied by 0.678) + (ITGB7 expression amount multiplied by 0.809) + (CRIP1 expression amount multiplied by 0.674) + (TUBA1B expression amount multiplied by 0.800) + (CCND2 expression amount multiplied by 0.120) - (HIST1H4C expression amount multiplied by 1.246) + (CD74 expression amount multiplied by 0.421). The model identity index (C-index) was 0.7, and the overall model had significant statistical significance (p-9.5825 e-6).
The external data modeling process (FIG. 3) is as follows: downloading 118 high-risk MM patient transcriptome sequencing data (high-risk definition is R-ISS III phase) in a public database as training cohort, and defining a high-risk group or a low-risk group according to the expression quantity of 7-gene signature, wherein the specific standard is as follows: the high risk group is R-ISS III stage and the expression quantity of the 7-gene signature is more than 16.44; the low risk group is R-ISS stage III and the expression level of the 7-gene signature is less than 16.44.

The GSE136324 dataset was published by the american seille gene in 2019 and was included in 436 first-visit MM patients, including 118R-ISS stage iii patients. All patients subsequently received multiple autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplants. Analysis of Whole bone marrow and CD138 Using the GPL27143 chip platform+MM cell to obtainTo gene expression chip data. In the data set GSE136324, a risk score is generated for each R-ISS phase III patient based on the risk score function described above. The turning point of the ROC function curve is selected as the best cut-off point (cut-off value: 16.44) for grouping of the risk scores, and 15 cases of high risk groups and 108 cases of low risk groups are obtained. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis shows that the median survival time of the patients in the high risk group is obviously shorter than that of the patients in the low risk group (the high risk group is 44.0 months, the low risk group is 147.0 months), and the Log-Rank test has significant significance (p)<0.0001,HR=3.015)。
Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the survival time of patients in the high risk group was significantly shortened in the lower risk group (high risk group: month 44.0, low risk group: month 147.0, p <0.0001, HR ═ 3.015). The results indicate that high expression of 7 genes can further stratify the high-risk patients in the stage III of R-ISS.
The internal data validation (fig. 3) process is as follows: in order to verify the reliability of the prognosis hierarchical model, verification was performed by using the data of patients admitted by the lymphoma center in the hematological disease hospital of the Chinese academy of medicine (the institute of hematology of the Chinese academy of medicine). The specific process is as follows:
firstly, collecting bone marrow samples of MM high-risk patients (n is 58) collected by a lymphoma center of a Chinese medical academy of sciences hospital (institute of hematology of Chinese medical academy of sciences) according to the definition of sMART3.0(Mayo clinical 2018 revision), separating mononuclear cells by Ficoll, and enriching CD138 in the mononuclear cells by immunomagnetic beads+Tumor cells, and performing transcriptome sequencing. 7 gene expression quantities of 58 samples are calculated and evaluated, 7 gene expression quantities are obtained according to a weighted average calculation formula of the 7 gene expression quantities, and according to the best cutoff point (cutoff is 29.40) of the risk score, the patients are divided into 10 cases (7-gene expression quantity is larger than 29.40) of high risk groups and 48 cases (7-gene expression quantity is smaller than 29.40) of low risk groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that median survival time was significantly shorter in the high risk group than in the low risk group (high risk group: 19.0 months, low risk group: 50.0 months), and the Log-Rank test was significant (p-0.0198, HR-2.739).
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
