Abstract
- Immunogenic death (ICD) stimulates adaptive immunity and affects immunotherapeutic efficacy, an important part of which is damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). However, the function of these DAMPs for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains obscure. We initially found differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with prognostic significance related to DAMPs with the TCGA database and then used the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression to create a risk signature strongly correlated with overall survival (OS) with eight DEGs. Validation was performed externally using the external data set GSE68465. Lower-risk LUAD patients were found to be more chemotherapy-resistant and enriched for more immune-related pathways than those with higher risk scores, and patients with different risks showed different levels of immune cell infiltration. PANX1, a crucial gene closely associated with lung adenocarcinoma, was identified using the weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), and experiments revealed that PANX1 promotes the proliferation as well as invasion of LUAD cells. Furthermore, PANX1 was found to be positively correlated with CD274, CD276, and M2 macrophage markers. We developed and validated an entirely new gene signature related to DAMPs that may be useful for LUAD patient prognosis, immune microenvironment, and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity prediction. The results may also guide clinical immunotherapy and chemotherapy approaches for LUAD patients.
