Abstract

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is severely affecting the health and lives of patients. Clarifying the composition and regulatory factors of tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is helpful for the treatment of PDAC. We analyzed the unique TIMEs and gene expression patterns between PDAC and adjacent normal tissue (ANT) using Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) to find new immunotherapy targets. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets were used to elucidate the possible mechanism of which tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) changed in PDAC. We found that the composition of TAMs subtypes, including M0, M1, and M2, was different between PDAC and ANT, which was validated in recently published single-cell RNA-seq data. Many immune cells interacted with each other to affect the TIME. There were many DEGs enriched in some pathways that could potentially change the immune cell composition. KRT6A was found to be a DEG between PDAC and ANT that overlapped with DEGs between the M0-high group and the M0-low group in TCGA datasets, and it might alter and regulate TAMs via a collection of genes including COL5A2, COL1A2, MIR3606, SPARC, and COL6A3. TAMs, which could be a target of immunotherapy, might be influenced by genes through KRT6A and indicate an undesirable prognosis in PDAC.

摘要

胰腺导管腺癌 (PDAC) 严重影响患者的健康和生命。阐明肿瘤免疫微环境 (TIME) 的组成和调节因子有助于 PDAC 的治疗。我们使用基因表达综合数据库 (GEO) 分析了 PDAC 与相邻正常组织 (ANT) 之间独特的 TIME 和基因表达模式,以寻找新的免疫治疗靶点。癌症基因组图谱 (TCGA) 数据集被用来阐明 PDAC 中肿瘤相关巨噬细胞 (TAMs) 变化的可能机制。我们发现 PDAC 和 ANT 之间 TAMs 亚型的组成不同,包括 M0、M1 和 M2,这在最近发表的单细胞 RNA-seq 数据中得到了验证。许多免疫细胞相互作用影响 TIME。在一些可能改变免疫细胞组成的途径中富集了许多差异表达基因 (DEGs)。KRT6A 是 PDAC 和 ANT 之间的 DEG,与 TCGA 数据集中 M0 高组和 M0 低组之间的 DEG 重叠,它可能通过 COL5A2、COL1A2、MIR3606、SPARC 和 COL6A3 等一系列基因改变和调节 TAMs。TAMs 可能是免疫治疗的靶点,可能受到 KRT6A 基因的影响,并预示着 PDAC 预后不良。
