Abstract

Abstract : Background . Molecular features have been included in the categorization of gliomas because they may be excellent predictors of tumor prognosis. Lower-grade glioma (LGGs, which comprise grade 2 and grade 3 gliomas) patients have a wide variety of outcomes. The goal of this research is to investigate a pyroptosis-based long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) profile and see whether it can be used to predict LGG prognosis. Methods . The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) and Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets were utilized to get RNA data and clinical information for this research. Six considerably related lncRNAs (AL355574.1, AL355974.2, Z97989.1, SNAI3-AS1, LINC02593, and CYTOR) were selected using Cox regression (univariate and multivariate) and LASSO Cox regression. A variety of statistical techniques, including ROC curves, nomogram, and Kaplan-Meier curves, were utilized to verify the risk score's accuracy. Following that, bioinformatics studies were carried out to investigate the possible molecular processes that influence LGG prognosis. The variations in pathway enrichment were investigated using GSEA. The immune microenvironment inconsistencies were investigated using CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE, MCPcounter, TIMER algorithms, and ssGSEA. Results . We discovered six lncRNAs with distinct expression patterns that are linked to LGG prognosis. Kaplan-Meier studies showed a signature of high-risk lncRNAs associated with a poor prognosis for LGG. Furthermore, the AUC of the lncRNA signature was 0.763, indicating that they may be used to predict LGG prognosis. In predicting LGG prognosis, our risk assessment approach outperformed conventional clinicopathological characteristics. In the high-risk group of people, GSEA identified tumor-related pathways and immune-related pathways. Furthermore, T cell-related activities such as T cell coinhibition and costimulation, check point, APC coinhibition and costimulation, CCR, and inflammatory promoting were shown to be substantially different between the two groups in TCGA analysis. Immune checkpoints including PD-1, CTLA4, and PD-L1 were expressed differentially in the two groups as well. Conclusion . This study found that pyroptosis-based lncRNAs were useful in predicting LGG patients' survival, suggesting that they may be used as a therapeutic target in the future.
