| Sumario: | This study aims to investigate the differentiation trajectory of osteosarcoma cells and to construct molecular subtypes with their respective characteristics and generate a multi-gene signature for predicting prognosis. Integrated single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data, bulk RNA-seq data and microarray data from osteosarcoma samples were used for analysis. Via scRNA-seq data, time-related as well as differentiation-related genes were recognized as osteosarcoma tumor stem cell-related genes (OSCGs). In Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) cohort, osteosarcoma patients were classified into two subtypes based on prognostic OSCGs and it was found that molecular typing successfully predicted overall survival, tumor microenvironment and immune infiltration status. Further, available drugs for influencing osteosarcoma via prognostic OSCGs were revealed. A 3-OSCG-based prognostic risk score signature was generated and by combining other clinic-pathological independent prognostic factor, stage at diagnosis, a nomogram was established to predict individual survival probability. In external independent TARGET cohort, the molecular types, the 3-gene signature as well as nomogram were validated. In conclusion, osteosarcoma cell differentiation occupies a crucial position in many facets, such as tumor prognosis and microenvironment, suggesting promising therapeutic targets for this disease. |
