Abstract
Background: Immunotherapy shows promise in treating cancer by leveraging the immune system to combat cancer cells. However, the influence of crotonylation metabolism on the prognosis and tumor environment in ccRCC patients is not fully understood.
Methods: We conducted various systematic analyses, including prognosis and cluster analyses, to investigate the role of KAT2A in immunotherapy. We used qRT-PCR to compare KAT2A expression in cancer and adjacent tissues and among different cell lines. Additionally, we employed Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing, and Transwell chamber assays to assess changes in the proliferative and metastatic ability of A498 and 786-O cells.
Results: We identified three clusters related to crotonylation metabolism, each with distinct prognosis and immune characteristics in ccRCC. We categorized CT1 as immune-inflamed, CT2 as immune-excluded, and CR3 as immune-desert. A new system, CRS, emerged as an effective predictor of patient outcomes with differing immune characteristics. Moreover, qRT-PCR revealed elevated KAT2A levels in ccRCC tissues and cell lines. KAT2A was found to promote ccRCC and correlate significantly with immunosuppressive elements and checkpoints. Reducing KAT2A expression hindered ccRCC cell growth and metastasis.
Conclusion: Our study highlights the critical role of crotonylation metabolism in cancer development and progression, particularly its link to poor prognosis. CRS proves to be an accurate predictor of patient outcomes and immune features in ccRCC. KAT2A shows strong associations with clinical factors and the immunosuppressive environment, suggesting potential for innovative immunotherapies in ccRCC treatment.
期刊介绍：
IJCP is a general medical journal. IJCP gives special priority to work that has international appeal.
IJCP publishes:
Editorials. IJCP Editorials are commissioned. [Peer reviewed at the editor''s discretion]
Perspectives. Most IJCP Perspectives are commissioned. Example. [Peer reviewed at the editor''s discretion]
Study design and interpretation. Example. [Always peer reviewed]
Original data from clinical investigations. In particular: Primary research papers from RCTs, observational studies, epidemiological studies; pre-specified sub-analyses; pooled analyses. [Always peer reviewed]
Meta-analyses. [Always peer reviewed]
Systematic reviews. From October 2009, special priority will be given to systematic reviews. [Always peer reviewed]
Non-systematic/narrative reviews. From October 2009, reviews that are not systematic will be considered only if they include a discrete Methods section that must explicitly describe the authors'' approach. Special priority will, however, be given to systematic reviews. [Always peer reviewed]
''How to…'' papers. Example. [Always peer reviewed]
Consensus statements. [Always peer reviewed] Short reports. [Always peer reviewed]
Letters. [Peer reviewed at the editor''s discretion]
International scope
IJCP publishes work from investigators globally. Around 30% of IJCP articles list an author from the UK. Around 30% of IJCP articles list an author from the USA or Canada. Around 45% of IJCP articles list an author from a European country that is not the UK. Around 15% of articles published in IJCP list an author from a country in the Asia-Pacific region.
