Abstract
This article aimed to investigate the correlations among SKA3 expression and prognosis, clinical relevance, tumor immunity, and RNA-binding protein (RBP)-involved mechanisms for overall survival (OS) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). To explore the SKA3 expression level in LUAD by analyzing the genomic data as well as related clinical characteristics from the database of TCGA. Nomogram and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were applied, respectively, to evaluate the performance of SKA3 in LUAD. Correlations between SKA3 and immunity and RBP-involved mechanisms were also performed. SKA3 had a higher expression level in LUAD samples than in adjacent normal lung samples, with shorter survival times in the high-SKA3-expressed LUAD subgroup (P < 0.05). qRT-PCR results remained consistent (P < 0.05). Uni-/multivariate Cox analyses revealed that SKA3 could have independent prognostic ability for LUAD (both P < 0.05). The nomogram model constructed with clinical pathological parameters and SKA3 expression levels predicted OS rates for LUAD and GSEA revealed SKA3-related pathways. In aspects of tumor immunity, SKA3 was significantly involved with tumor neoantigen burden, tumor mutational burden, immune cell pathways, and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) molecules (all P < 0.05). The CellMiner database also found significant correlations between SKA3 and the antitumor drug sensitivity of chemotherapy, fenretinide, and PX-316. Besides, a total of nine LncRNA/RBP/SKA3 networks were revealed in LUAD for their RBP-involved mechanisms. SKA3 could serve as a potential biomarker for OS prognosis and immunotherapy in LUAD. LncRNA/RBP/SKA3 networks were identified in LUAD for their RBP-involved mechanisms, paving the way for further experimental verifications.
