Abstract

Abstract : Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is among the most prevalent malignant lung cancers with a poor prognosis due to high invasiveness and lethality despite multiple treatments. Since the lung is an important organ associated with oxidative stress, and it has been confirmed that oxidative stress represents a potential cancer-specific depletion, it is of important significance to investigate and evaluate the clinical value of oxidative stress mechanisms regulating tumor cell apoptosis. Furthermore, there are few studies on the impact of the microenvironment on reaction to immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with LUAD. Based on the TCGA-LUAD dataset, which is stratified into a training set as well as a validation set in a ratio of 2 : 1, this investigation constructs and validates a prognostic predictive power of a gene signature model of oxidative stress-related prognostic signatures. To ascertain the differences between the high-risk score group and the low-risk score group in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and patients' response to ICI therapy. This oxidative stress-related prognostic gene signature is composed of MAP3K19 and NTSR1 and is an independent prognosis-related factor in the LUAD group. The outcome of patients having a low risk score is better, and the difference was statistically significant, and individuals with a low risk score had a larger number of infiltrating immune cell distribution in the tumor microenvironment, which was closely related to clinical outcome. Our study suggests that the synergistic effect of oxidative stress-related prognostic gene markers-MAP3K19 and NTSR1 has clinical significance in the prognosis identification and immunotherapy of LUAD patients. Thus, the results may help to better intersect the oxidative stress-related mechanisms in clinical value in LUAD but requires prospective validation.
