An effective N6-methyladenosine-related long non-coding RNA prognostic signature for predicting the prognosis of patients with bladder cancer
Abstract Background Bladder cancer (BLCA) typically has a poor prognosis due to high relapse and metastasis rates. A growing body of evidence indicates that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in the progression of BLCA and the treatment response of patient...

A growing body of evidence indicates that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in the progression of BLCA and the treatment response of patients with BLCA. Therefore, we conducted a comprehensive RNA-seq analysis of BLCA using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to establish an m6A-related lncRNA prognostic signature (m6A-RLPS) for BLCA. Methods Consensus clustering analysis was used to investigate clusters of BLCA patients with varying prognoses. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression were used to develop the m6A-RLPS. The ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT algorithms were used to evaluate the immune composition. Results A total of 745 m6A-related lncRNAs were identified using Pearson correlation analysis (|R| > 0.4, p < 0.001). Fifty-one prognostic m6A-related lncRNAs were screened using univariate Cox regression analysis. Through consensus clustering analysis, patients were divided into two clusters (clusters 1 and 2) with different overall survival rates and tumor stages based on the differential expression of the lncRNAs. Enrichment analysis demonstrated that terms related to tumor biological processes and immune-related activities were increased in patient cluster 2, which was more likely to exhibit low survival rates. Nine m6A-related prognostic lncRNAs were finally determined and subsequently used to construct the m6A-RLPS, which was verified to be an independent predictor of prognosis using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Further, a nomogram based on age, tumor stage, and the m6A-RLPS was generated and showed high accuracy and reliability with respect to predicting the survival outcomes of BLCA patients. The prognostic signature was found to be strongly correlated to tumor-infiltrating immune cells and immune checkpoint expression. Conclusions We established a novel m6A-RLPS with a favorable prognostic value for patients with BLCA. We believe that this prognostic signature can provide new insights into the tumorigenesis of BLCA and predict the treatment response in patients with BLCA.Tianming MaXiaonan WangLingfeng MengXiaodong LiuJiawen WangWei ZhangZijian TianYaoguang ZhangBMCarticleBladder cancerN6-methyladenosineLong non-coding RNAPrognostic signatureImmune infiltrationNeoplasms.
