Description

Method for predicting survival prognosis of bladder cancer patient based on lncRNA optimization model
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of prognosis prediction of bladder cancer, in particular to a method for predicting survival prognosis of a bladder cancer patient based on an lncRNA optimization model.
Background
Bladder Cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, with significant tumor heterogeneity. Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC) generally has a poor prognosis, while Non-Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) has a relatively better prognosis. Prognosis prediction of bladder cancer is of great significance to the selection of clinical treatment regimens. However, accurately assessing the risk of a poor prognosis for a patient remains a challenge.
A number of predictive models for bladder cancer have been established. For non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, these models focus primarily on predicting disease recurrence and progression, patient responsiveness to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, lymph node metastasis, and prognosis of survival. However, for muscle-invasive bladder cancer, the prediction effect of these models on the survival prognosis of patients is not satisfactory, and this may be related to tumor heterogeneity, patient treatment response, and other unexplained mechanisms of action that affect risk factors related to bladder cancer development.
As for the lymph node metastasis model, several models such as KNN51, RF15, and LN20 are reported. It is reported that the AUC of KNN51 predicting lymph node positive cases is 0.82 (range 0.71-0.93), and in addition, a model for predicting lymph node metastasis before surgery is proposed, which uses genome and clinical pathological features to identify patients at risk of lymph node metastasis of bladder cancer, showing good discriminative power. Our studies indicate that this composite model is effective in predicting lymph node metastasis. However, the prediction model for the urothelial cancer lymph node metastasis in the past research still cannot be clinically applied, and accurate prediction of bladder cancer prognosis still remains to be a difficult challenge.
Previous studies show that Long noncoding RNA (Long-noncoding-RNA) has obvious tissue specificity and is widely involved in epigenetic regulation in cells. A plurality of researches show that lncRNA plays an important role in regulating and controlling bladder cancer and influences the treatment response, tumor metastasis and progression of tumors. A plurality of long non-coding RNAs are related to the metastasis of bladder cancer, such AS H19, DLX6-AS1, BLACAT2 and the like. Most of these studies have focused on analyzing the biological function of single long non-coding RNAs in tumors and their correlation with prognosis. Models for predicting bladder cancer prognosis based on multiple lncrnas are still few, lacking validation and systematic studies. A lncRNA model is constructed based on a statistical and unbiased method, and the prognosis prediction performance of the model is compared with a model established based on lncRNA discovered on the basis of functional research.
Due to significant tumor heterogeneity in bladder cancer, patients with similar urothelial cancer may have different outcomes after treatment. Recent studies have revealed that different molecular subtypes of bladder cancer have different clinical outcomes, and that bladder cancer of different molecular classifications exhibits specific tumor microenvironment characteristics and is significantly correlated with patient prognosis. Among them, cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) cells in the tumor microenvironment are closely related to specific tumor cell differentiation subtypes, and the subpopulations rich in stromal cells are usually associated with poor prognosis of bladder Cancer, and are also accompanied by abundant lymphocyte infiltration, indicating that immunosuppression exists in bladder Cancer tissues. In addition, several studies have evaluated the role of immune molecules as biomarkers for cancer prognosis, suggesting that immune status may affect the prognosis of bladder cancer. The immune characteristic and interstitial characteristic information of a tumor microenvironment are integrated to construct a bladder cancer prognosis prediction model, so that the accuracy of prediction can be improved, and the method is helpful for guiding clinical treatment scheme formulation.
Based on this, we constructed and optimized a long noncoding RNA fusion model in this study. The model integrates gene expression information of clinical risk factors, tumor microenvironment interstitial cells and immune cell subtypes and is used for predicting the prognosis of bladder cancer patients. The model has excellent performance in accurately predicting bladder cancer prognosis and has expandability.

The optimized fusion model has excellent performance, expandability and certain clinical application value.
2. The method for predicting the survival prognosis of a patient with bladder cancer based on an lncRNA optimization model can comprise molecular characteristics from multiple groups of mathematical data. In research, incomplete data or missing data are common problems limiting the application of the model, and the model is constructed on the basis of relatively complete data, so that the generation can be predicted in multiple dimensions, and the model performance is more stable. Secondly, the framework of the invention is scalable and can be adjusted to the clinical and genetic data availability of different centers. Thirdly, with the framework in the study of the present invention also applicable to various cancer types, the availability of multigroup data makes the framework very useful for model building of other cancers as well.
