Abstract：
BACKGROUND:Various components of the immune system play a critical role in the prognosis and treatment response in ovarian cancer (OC). Immunotherapy has been recognized as a hallmark of cancer but the effect is contradictional. Reliable immune gene-based prognostic biomarkers or regulatory factors are necessary to be systematically explored to develop an individualized prediction signature. METHODS:This study systematically explored the gene expression profiles in patients with ovarian cancer from RNA-seq data set for The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Differentially expressed immune genes and transcription factors (TFs) were identified using the collected immune genes from ImmPort dataset and TFs from Cistoma database. Survival associated immune genes and TFs were identified in terms of overall survival. The prognostic signature was developed based on survival associated immune genes with LASSO (Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) Cox regression analysis. Further, we performed network analysis to uncover the potential regulators of immune-related genes with the help of computational biology. RESULTS:The prognostic signature, a weighted combination of the 21 immune-related genes, performed moderately in survival prediction with AUC was 0.746, 0.735, and 0.749 for 1, 3, and 5 year overall survival, respectively. Network analysis uncovered the regulatory role of TFs in immune genes. Intriguingly, the prognostic signature reflected the immune cells landscape and infiltration of some immune cell subtypes. CONCLUSIONS:We first constructed a signature with 21 immune genes of clinical significance, which showed promising predictive value in the surveillance, and prognosis of OC patients.
