An immune cell infiltration-related gene signature predicts prognosis for bladder cancer

Abstract: To explore novel therapeutic targets, develop a gene signature and construct a prognostic nomogram of bladder cancer (BCa). Transcriptome data and clinical traits of BCa were downloaded from UCSC Xena database and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. We then used the method of Single sample Gene Set Enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) to calculate the infiltration abundances of 24 immune cells in eligible BCa samples. By weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), we identified turquoise module with strong and … Show more

“…A series of immune-related prognostic gene signatures for bladder cancers have been constructed based on the public datasets obtained from TCGA and GEO databases [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]. They usually employed the TCGA-BLCA dataset to build the model and then validated it with a single external GEO dataset.…”

“…Considering the inter-and intratumoral heterogeneity in BCa, a multigene signature holding homogenous expression profiles, may be an attractive method to address this challenge. Based on the advance in bioinformatics, numerous prognostic multigene signatures have been developed (8,9). But these signatures are seldom used in clinical practices because of moderate accuracy, low reliability, and unsuitable machine learning methods.…”

“…As a result, physicians are now able to select high‐risk patients and potential responders with greater accuracy. This allows for the preferential use of chemotherapy or immune checkpoint blockade‐based immunotherapy, providing more personalized treatment approaches and improving patient outcomes 8–11 . Despite the availability of molecular biomarkers, their usefulness in clinical settings is often limited due to underutilized data information, lack of clinical validation, and insufficient independent verification.…”

“…This allows for the preferential use of chemotherapy or immune checkpoint blockade-based immunotherapy, providing more personalized treatment approaches and improving patient outcomes. [8][9][10][11] Despite the availability of molecular biomarkers, their usefulness in clinical settings is often limited due to underutilized data information, lack of clinical validation, and insufficient independent verification. To improve the prognosis of BLCA patients, it is critical to identify effective strategies that can overcome these limitations.…”
