Comprehensive Analysis of the Prognosis and Drug Sensitivity of Differentiation-Related lncRNAs in Papillary Thyroid Cancer
Dedifferentiation is the main concern associated with radioactive iodine (RAI) refractoriness in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), and the underlying mechanisms of PTC dedifferentiation remain unclear. The present work aimed to identify a useful signature to indicate dedifferentiation and further explore its role in prognosis and susceptibility to chemotherapy drugs. A total of five prognostic-related DR-lncRNAs were selected to establish a prognostic-predicting model, and corresponding risk scores were closely associated with the infiltration of immune cells and immune checkpoint blockade. Moreover, we built an integrated nomogram based on DR-lncRNAs and age that showed a strong ability to predict the 3- and 5-year overall survival. Interestingly, drug sensitivity analysis revealed that the low-risk group was more sensitive to Bendamustine and TAS-6417 than the high-risk group. In addition, knockdown of DR-lncRNAs (DPH6-DT) strongly promoted cell proliferation, invasion, and migration via PI3K-AKT signal pathway in vitro. Furthermore, DPH6-DT downregulation also increased the expression of vimentin and N-cadherin during epithelial-mesenchymal transition. This study firstly confirms that DR-lncRNAs play a vital role in the prognosis and immune cells infiltration in patients with PTC, as well as a predictor of the drugs’ chemosensitivity. Based on our results, DR-lncRNAs can serve as a promising prognostic biomarkers and treatment targets.
